Mission
The Special Events Commission serves the pastor, parishioners and staff as the focal point for community building activities. We periodically assess existing and potential events and ensure that each event undertaken is successfully completed.

We want these events to foster a vibrant parish community that engages a broad spectrum of parishioners, both to financially support the church and to build strong and deep community ties.

Activities
  • Sheffield Garden Walk - Every July, while the bands rock in our parking lot and the neighboring gardens blossom, St. Vincent's parishioners enjoy this summer festival. We raise money for the Seton Food Pantry by operating several food and drink tents just outside our Sheffield Avenue doors. See the Sheffield Garden Walk page for current information.
  • Social Events - If you're new to St. Vincent's, or just want to meet other parishioners, come to the regularly scheduled Social Events and learn more about the activities of the parish community. In the past these have included "Doughnut & Bagel" socials; currently these include "Wine & Cheese" socials. See the Weekly Bulletin for the current schedule of these Social Events.
  • Other Activities - The Special Events Commission also organizes events such:
    Sports outings (group visits to Cubs games).
    Gaming and social nights (formerly the Groundhog Gala).
    Rededication of the Church.
    Reception for the 125th Anniversary of the parish.
    Other special one-time events.
