What a blessed day for our parish and community!

To every single person who came out to our Parish Bazaar — THANK YOU!🙏

From the delicious BBQ dinner to the laughter-filled games, the excitement of the live auction, and the joy of dancing together at the dance to Fritz Hodde and the Fabulous Six— our parish showed up in a BIG way and made this a successful celebration!

This is what community looks like. This is what family looks like. And what a beautiful reminder that when we gather together, something special happens.

A heartfelt thank you to our incredible volunteers, organizers, donors, and every single parishioner who made this event possible. Your generosity of time, talent, and treasure is a gift to one another and to this community.

Days like this are a reminder of how God works through each and every one of us when we come together. May God bless each of you abundantly for your support! 🙌

Saints Cyril and Methodius, pray for us!🕊️

Have a blessed Labor Day!

Curious about Catholicism? You don’t need to know everything—or anything!—to begin exploring. Many people who come to us wonder the same things: What do Catholics believe about the Bible? Why do we honor Mary and the saints? What really happens at Mass? These are beautiful, honest questions, and you don’t need all the answers before you start the journey.⁣
⁣
At SSCM, we offer classes and preparation where we walk with you step by step. There’s no pressure to convert—just an open, welcoming space to learn about the Catholic faith, ask your questions, and discover the beauty of this universal Church. We’ll be alongside you the whole way. 👉 Interested in becoming Catholic or simply learning more? Register on our website! https://sscmchurch.org/ocia

As school clothes are getting laid out and alarm clocks get set, our parish family is lifting up every student, teacher, parent, and school staff member in prayer this week and throughout the entire school year.

Whether you’re heading to a classroom down the street or a university across the country — you are not alone. Christ goes before you, beside you, and within you.

Join us in prayer🙏🏼

Lord, we praise you for the beautiful way you have created each and every one of us — for mind, body, and spirit. Be with our children as they begin a new school year. Bless them and their teachers and staff. Give them strength and grace as their bodies grow, wisdom and knowledge to their minds as they search for understanding, and peace and zeal in their hearts.

And for our teachers, Lord God, your spirit of wisdom fills the earth and teaches us your ways. Look upon these teachers. Let them strive to share their knowledge with gentle patience and endeavor always to bring the truth to eager minds. Grant that they may follow Jesus Christ, the way, the truth, and the life, forever and ever.

May our students be surrounded by good friends who know and love the Lord — and may they treat each person they encounter as another child of God.

Place a hedge of protection over all schools especially those represented by our parish families. Hold them in your mighty hands and grant safety and health to all who walk through those school doors each day.

We ask all this through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

📖 "The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom." — Proverbs 9:10

Have a great school year!🫶🏼

🎒✝️ Blessing of the Backpacks Mass ✝️🎒

What a beautiful way to begin a new school year! This past weekend, our parish family gathered together for our Blessing of the Backpacks Mass — placing the year ahead into the hands of God before it even begins.

Students, teachers, staff, coaches, and administrators — as we start the new school year, know that you are being held in prayer, and entrusted to God's grace, wisdom, and protection for the journey ahead.

We will continue to lift up in prayer:

Students — that they may pursue truth and grow in wisdom.
Teachers & Staff — that they may give of their gifts with patience and love.
Coaches — that they may build character alongside community.
Administrators — that they may lead with justice and compassion.

The school year is underway, and it is already covered in grace.

"In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths." — Proverbs 3:6

Thank you to all who joined us. If you weren't able to make it this time, we would love to see you at Mass soon. All are welcome!
