St. Vincent Ferrer Groundbreaking

Please join us for the groundbreaking ceremony for Kyte Hall on the grounds of St. Vincent Ferrer Parish at North Avenue and Lathrop, River Forest, on Sunday, March 26 following the 11:00 am Mass in the church. St. Vincent Ferrer has contracted with Northern Builders to construct a new $2m multipurpose hall named in honor of Fr. Michael Kyte, OP, a much-loved associate pastor of the parish who died in 2014. The new building will run along the western side of the church connecting it with a lobby which can be entered near the present southwest door of the church. The hall will provide much needed gathering and meeting spaces for the growing parish. Some of the groups that will meet in the new space include: several Bible Studies, Alpha Course, Men's Group, Young Couple's Group, and Al-Anon. Part of the space will also be used daily during the week as a lunchroom for St. Vincent Ferrer School. The building will also include a Eucharistic Adoration Chapel and a small religious goods shop. Construction will be completed in Fall of 2017.
