In Chicago, when you ask Catholics where they live, they almost invariably give the name of their parish rather than the name of the street – an indication of the importance of the parish to the catholic community. The migration of population to outlying suburbs, however, and a growing shortage of priests and sisters has forced some painful decisions on parishes – but also stimulated new and creative ideas.
