📚 RELIGIOUS EDUCATION REGISTRATION ✝️

Registration forms for Religious Education are now available in the Narthex of the church.

Parents and families, please be sure to pick up a registration form for the upcoming year.

We look forward to another wonderful year of growing together in faith! 🙏❤️

There is always room for one more heart in prayer. ❤️

We are blessed to offer Eucharistic Adoration every Wednesday at St. Mary’s, beginning immediately after the 8:00 AM Mass and concluding with the Rosary, Divine Mercy Chaplet, and Benediction at 10:30 AM.

We are looking for parishioners who are able to spend some time with Our Lord on Wednesday mornings. During Eucharistic Adoration, the Blessed Sacrament may never be left unattended, so having faithful adorers throughout the morning is an important ministry in the life of our parish.

Whether you can stay for the entire morning or just part of the time, your presence makes a difference. Even one hour—or a portion of an hour—helps ensure that someone is always there in prayer before the Lord.

If your schedule allows, please consider stopping by to spend some quiet time with Jesus.

Our weekly bulletin is prepared and printed by an outside publishing company. By the time it appears on our website each week, it has already been finalized and sent to print. From time to time, errors can happen. If one is discovered, we kindly ask for your patience and understanding. Father will usually clarify it at Mass, and it will be corrected in the following week’s bulletin whenever possible. 
Because the bulletin is finalized before it is posted, changes cannot be made once it has been submitted for printingg.
