The sacredness of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass is of vital importance to us. Whether it’s how we celebrate the Mass, how we teach our faith formation classes, how we carry out the Sacraments or how we carry out a Christian burial, tradition remains at the core. Tradition is a handing on a set of beliefs that we uphold as truth, beauty and goodness.
This appreciation of tradition is of great appeal to both new parishioners and long-time members. New parishioners tend to be younger generations who are in search of tradition – perhaps lost in so many parishes. We are a community where tradition began in Kenosha, and where tradition continues. We invite you to peruse our website and learn how you can become a part of our rich heritage.

Join the DTKC parishes at St. Elizabeth Church on Wednesday, April 16 at 7:30 p.m. for our ‘Spy Wednesday’ Tenebrae Service during Holy Week. Tenebrae is a Latin word for “darkness” or “shadows” and consists of the chanting of Matins and Lauds of the Divine Office on the final three days of Lent leading up to Easter Sunday. Matins and Lauds consist of Psalms, Antiphons, and readings that highlight the sacred mysteries of Holy Week. The mood of the celebration focuses on the death of Jesus and is consequently very somber.
