ADA 2020
Annual Diocesan Appeal
The Annual Diocesan Appeal begins in our Parish this weekend (Sept 19th/20th), throughout the Diocese of Peoria.  It is time for us to do what we can to support not only our Diocese but the programs and ministries that benefit our parish and our Catholic community.  The ADA supports the education of our future priests and deacons as well as the Office of Catholic Schools.  It supports ministries that change lives for the better.  We are blessed with much; let us be a blessing to others.
St. Patrick's of Seneca ADA Goal is $22,255.00.  ​We thank you for your generosity.

On September 7, a new cross was installed at St Patrick's Catholic Church. The replacement cross was made by Ray Eich and Dave Barsi from a 14 foot oak tree trunk. That morning it was installed by Matt Erickson, Kent Weber, Ray Eich, Mike Hoover, George McComb, and Father Jean assisting. The cross marks the area in which the Protomartyr of Illinois is said to be buried. Father Alexander Millar, Pastor of St Patrick's blessed the cross on September 13, 2020. 
On September 1, 2020, George McComb and Mike Hoover hosted a farm Mass for St. Patrick Church, Seneca.  Father Jean was celebrant. It had rained most all that day but about 5pm the rain stopped and the sun came out to dry everything out. It was a great night for neighbors and friends to gather and give thanks for the upcoming harvest.

​Our Altar & Rosary would like everyone to know that due to COVID-19 and the size of our Parish Center they will not be able to host funeral dinners for the remainder of 2020.  They will definitely take a look at the possibility of reopening this idea come January 2021.

St. Joseph's and St. Mary's parishioners wanting to set up their on-line giving please go to the top right corner and find your Church's name and click on it. 
​This is still under construction - we are waiting for Father's direction.
