Welcome! ...to the website for the Church of St. Benedict, the Episcopal Church in Bolingbrook, Illinois
St. Benedict seeks to provide a place of welcome and nurture for all sorts and conditions of God’s people. In our mission statement, we declare that we seek to be a "home away from home" for all who walk through our doors. Community is of high value here.
Worship at St. Benedict is traditional and warm, in the best senses of both words. We are often told by those who visit that they feel the presence of the Spirit in the this place, even during the week when the congregation is not gathered in worship.
Several community groups gather and use our new building, as does another church family on Sunday afternoons (New Covenant Pentecostal Church). The church was built with use by the wider community in mind. We see it as part of our gift to the wider Bolingbrook community.
We invite you to get to know us, through this website, by visiting us on a Sunday morning, or by calling during the week. We are always glad for the opportunity to offer prayer, answer questions, or share the faith. All are welcome!
As people of faith,
we of the Church of St. Benedict
invite you to join us
in the ongoing creation
of a home away from home,
a place to belong and to become
within a community
shaped by God's love.
