Her feast day is August 11.<\/p>\n<h2>A Community of Believers<\/h2>\n<p>St. Philomena Roman Catholic Congregation, part of the Catholic Diocese of Peoria, is an ingrained part of the community of Peoria. In addition, we offer many opportunities to participate in <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.stphils.com\/church\/catholic-church-ceremony-peoria-il\/\">church happenings.<\/a><\/strong> Our Liturgical Ministers, for example, are an integral part of each Mass thanks to our many Lectors, Eucharistic Ministers, Ushers and Altar Servers. Also, we offer a variety of Faith Formation programs. These include anything from Bible Study Groups and Women\u2019s Ministry to Children\u2019s Sunday School and Liturgical Youth Programs.<\/p>\n<p>For busy parents with small children, we have a staffed church nursery during the 9 a.m. and 11 a.m. Masses. Designed for kids six months of age to two years of age, parents can use this time to participate fully in Mass.<\/p>\n<h2>Contact Our Church in Peoria IL<\/h2>\n<p>Learn more about our offerings or become a parishioner by contacting the St. Philomena Church Rectory at <a href=\"tel:3096828642\"><strong>309-682-8642<\/strong>.<\/a> Or, e-mail us at <strong><a href=\"mailto:rectory@stphils.com\">rectory@stphils.com<\/a><\/strong>.
