St. Alphonsus Liguori in Prospect Heights and St. Thomas Becket in Mount Prospect will unite as one parish with two worship sites, one pastor and one pastoral team, effective July 1, the Archdiocese of Chicago announced over the weekend.
St. Alphonsus Liguori School, which nearly closed in 2016 amid dwindling enrollment and financial issues, will continue in its current structure, but its future will be revisited if the school is unable to maintain financial independence, the archdiocese said.
The archdiocese also announced it would take more time to review the needs of its Spanish and Polish ministries in parishes included in the Hanover Township grouping before making any potential changes. Those parishes include St. Ansgar in Hanover Park, St. John the Evangelist in Streamwood and St. Peter Damian in Bartlett, as well as St. John the Evangelist School.
