Our District Council has purchased tickets for members and their families to attend the Mass for Pope Leo XIV at Rate Field (Sox Park).
The Pope, a lifelong White Sox fan and South Side native, will offer a special video message to the young people of the world at the event, with the Chicago faithful being the first to see it, the archdiocese said.
There will also be celebration, prayer and music and Cardinal Blase Cupich will be in attendance.
Local 1001 has been allotted 100 tickets. If you would like tickets, please contact your Business Agent, or call the hall to reserve them. There’s a limit of five per family until we make sure there are enough to go around. First come first served. We will contact you with a place and time to pick up the tickets.
Gates open at 12:30 p.m., the program begins at 2:30 p.m. and the mass begins at 4 p.m. on Saturday, June 14.
Parking is only $5 at the field.
