About this church
Old St. Patrick’s Catholic Church is a historic Roman Catholic parish in Chicago’s West Loop, gathering since 1846. The parish describes Eucharist as the common place where a diverse Chicago community is nourished and sent into the world, with liturgy shaped by hospitality, beauty, and kinship. Its five Sunday Masses range from a contemplative, music-free early service to larger choir- and instrument-led morning and evening liturgies. Parish life extends into children’s formation, social action, pastoral care, young-adult ministry, and Foundations, a high-school program combining fellowship, spirituality, retreats, service projects, and summer trips. A Special Friends Mass provides additional accessible worship on published dates at a nearby school cafeteria.
Sunday Mass is celebrated at 7:00, 9:00, and 11:00 a.m. and 5:00 and 8:00 p.m. The 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. liturgies are livestreamed. Weekday Mass meets Monday through Friday at 12:10 p.m., with Wednesday also online. The church is at 700 West Adams Street. Free Sunday parking is available in the structure at 625 West Adams, entered from DesPlaines Street, an important convenience in the downtown setting. Coffee, doughnuts, and fellowship follow the popular 9:00 and 11:00 Masses. Visitors can choose the quiet 7:00 service or a fuller musical liturgy later in the day.
