Mission Statement
The primary objective of St. Andrew the Apostle Church is to
minister to the spiritual needs of all parishioners. Further, the
Church has the avowed purpose to teach and otherwise follow the
teaching of the Roman Catholic Church as promulgated from the Holy See
in Rome under the direction of the Pope. While St. Andrew the Apostle
Church was originally founded over 100 years ago by persons of Polish
heritage, the parish today has a diverse ethnic and racial membership
which has strengthened the parish as it moves into its second 100 years
at the outset of the new millennium. St. Andrew the Apostle
is a community of faith in the rich fullness of the Roman Catholic
tradition.

The History of St. Andrew
the Apostle Parish
St. Andrew the Apostle Church is one of the oldest parishes in
southeast Cook County. The Parish was established in 1892 and
celebrated it's 100th Anniversary in 1992. Originally, the parish was
comprised largely of persons of Polish ancestry, but through the years
the parish has evolved to include families of diverse ethic
backgrounds. The parish has, however, still preserved some of the rich
Polish traditions, which has enabled the parish to flourish over the
past 100+ years.
St.
Andrew the Apostle Parish subscribes to the Roman Catholic Doctrine in
all items tangent to the Parish church and the Parish school. Over
the past 110 years, St. Andrew the Apostle Church has had ten pastors.
The current Pastor is Fr. Martin E. Michniewicz.
