Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity
In the Eucharist, through the power of the Holy Spirit, the bread and wine that are brought to the altar become truly Jesus Christ in the flesh.

"Jesus said to them, 'Amen, amen, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you do not have life within you. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him on the last day. For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me and I in him." John 6:53-56

First Holy Communion
Our plans for First Reconciliation and First Communion for the 2021-22 academic year are being developed. We will have more information about these sacramental programs and how to register for them in July. If you have specific questions, please send an email to ffo@northbrookcatholic.church.​

Eucharistic Adoration

 Picture
On the first Wednesday of every month, as well as every Wednesday during Lent, exposition and adoration of the Blessed Sacrament takes place at St. Norbert. This can be a beautiful way to spend time with the Lord and speak to Him heart to heart.
