Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

We will be in Chicago over the weekend and would like to attend an *orthodox* mass for Palm Sunday. Can anyone recommend one in/very near Chicago?

I have never been but have heard about it from friends.

Looks wonderful! Thank-you!

How wonderful our Lord is! Whenever we travel, he always leads us to a beautiful church and a beautiful mass!

You'd be in for lots of singing and no one would notice if your kids didn't sit still as most people stand.

As a former suburban Chicagoan I would recommend both of those churches too! St. Mary of the Angels is absolutely breathtaking and beautiful in every way as well. It is staffed by priests of the Prelature of Opus Dei.
