Welcome to St. Bernard Parish in Homer Glen, Illinois. Founded in 1978, we are a caring Catholic Community located within the Diocese of Joliet in Illinois and serve families in the southwest suburbs of Chicagoland. We invite you to worship with us at a daily or weekend liturgy.
Our Church Campus is located at 13030 W. 143rd Street, Homer Glen, Illinois 60491. Our Parish and Religious Education Offices are located at 14135 S. Parker Road, Homer Glen, Illinois 60491.
Our future is not mortar, brick, stone or lumber. Our future is church and church is people working, living and worshiping together. We are St. Bernard's - Together We Are Church. This is our motto and much more important, this is a challenge for each of us to live.
