Our Parish

Nestled in the heart of Kendall County, we are a vibrant, faith-filled community in the Diocese of Joliet.  In 2020, during a beautiful outdoor Confirmation Ceremony, Bishop Richard Pates christened us as “The Cathedral in the Cornfields,” a name that perfectly reflects our unique and welcoming spirit. 

We are just a mile west of Plainfield South High School, and conveniently located a short drive from Joliet, Plainfield, Oswego, Yorkville, Shorewood, and Minooka.

Whether you are a lifelong resident or a newcomer to the area, we invite you to join us at the “Cathedral in the Cornfields” where faith, family, and fellowship thrive.

Our website serves as a gateway to explore the many ways you can grow in your faith alongside our community.  From ministries and services to upcoming events, we hope you’ll find the resources you need to deepen your connection to Christ and His Church.  Be sure to check back regularly as we continually update our site with new information, exciting news, and opportunities for you to get involved.

At St. Francis Xavier, we are committed to serving you with open hearts, kindness, compassion, and the love of Christ.  Your presence enriches our faith community, and we are here to walk alongside you on your spiritual journey.
