Quinceañera Ministry

IMPORTANT COVID-19 UPDATE
​
Quinceañera Ministry is currently adjusted amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. The Archdiocese of Chicago has approved a reopening plan and our parishes have begun implementing Phase II, which includes guidelines for Quinceañera celebrations, however, parishes will not be ready immediately. You can schedule your celebrations with the parish of your choice, however, we will not be able to confirm your date until and unless the parish is ready to begin having Quinceañera celebrations.

Online formation is available for anyone who wants to get a head start on completing their requirements or who have a Quinceañera that is scheduled. Formation requirements have been adjuted due to the current COVID-19 guidelines. Please see the brochure below. Contact us at quinces@ucym.org for more information or with questions.
We Work Together!

The parishes in Evanston work together to provide Quinceañera preparation and administrative support for St. Athanasius Parish, St. Mary Parish, and St. Nicholas Parish.

Get Started
  1. VISIT – Visit the parish where you wish to celebrate your Quinceañera (parish addresses and office hours below).
  2. BEGIN YOUR REGISTRATION – Begin your registration at the parish and pick a date for your Quinceañera. It is very important you do this step FIRST and not book your hall first! The date of the hall might not match the available dates of the parish.
  3. AFTER REGISTRATION – After registration, your form will be sent to the Office of Youth Ministry and will be distributed to a member of the Formation Team, who will then guide you through your formation that needs to be completed in order for you to have your Quinceañera.

CONTACT US

We can help connect you with our preparation team and get you started after you have registered in one of the parish offices.

Our parish offices are slowly reopening to the public, however, we strongly recommend you call for the most consistent office support.
Please CALL the parish where you would like to schedule your Quinceañera. If no one answers, please leave a message and someone will get back to you. If you are not called back within 24 hours after leaving a voice message, you can email us at quinces@ucym.org or call 847-864-1185 x26 or x30 and we will help connect you with someone in the office. Please do not call or email us without first trying the parish office.
