This Memorial Day, St. Mary’s Parish honors and remembers the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our nation.
We pray for their eternal rest and for the families who carry their legacy in their hearts.

May we never forget the cost of our freedom.
Wishing you a peaceful and prayerful Memorial Day.

This weekend we celebrate Pentecost, the moment the Holy Spirit filled the disciples with courage, unity, and mission. That same Spirit is alive in our parish today.

Join us as we pray for renewal in our hearts, our families, and our community.

“Lord, send out your Spirit, and renew the face of the earth.”

We look forward to celebrating with you.

It's always a joy to watch children receive the sacraments of first Holy Communion and confirmation! We pray for all those receiving those sacraments this year, that they may be strengthened by the Holy Spirit to lead live dedicated to God.
