150th Anniversary: Regional Mass

The marking of the 150th anniversary of the Diocese of Peoria is meant to be a time of great spiritual, ecclesial and social significance in the life of the local Church.

Bishop Tylka will celebrate a Regional Mass for the Kewanee Vicariate to celebrate the anniversary at Saint John Paul II Parish on Tuesday, August 12, 2025 at 5:30 PM. All are welcome to attend! A reception will follow.

You may register for this event (seating is First Come, First Serve —once the church reaches capacity, attendees will be directed to overflow seating and livestream at Visitation Catholic School) by RSVP using the form found here: at saintjohnpaulii-kewanee.org/diocese150

The 150th anniversary of the Diocese of Peoria began on February 12, 2025 with the opening Mass at the Cathedral of St. Mary of the Immaculate Conception in Peoria, and will continue until the closing Mass on May 22, 2027.
