St. John Cantius stands as a unique church in the Archdiocese of Chicago—offering the liturgy of the Roman rite in both the Ordinary and Extraordinary Forms daily. Its solemn liturgies and devotions, treasures of sacred art, and rich program of sacred liturgical music have helped many Catholics discover a profound sense of the Sacred. The historic baroque church is one of the best examples of sacred architecture in the city. One mile directly west of the famous Water tower on Chicago Avenue, the landmark church is easily accessible by car, bus, or subway. Click here to read more » or Watch a video about our church »
