Thank you Pfaff Tire & Auto for your kindness and generosity.

LETS STOCK THE PANTRY!! We need your help!! Pfaff Tire & Auto is hosting a Food Drive for Livingston County Food Pantry and St. Mary’s Food Pantry this November 1-29th. Did you know that donating $$ is the best way to help the pantries because they can use the money for discounted meat and supplies that a person cannot get. So this year we are going to try something a little different. Not only will we be accepting canned goods to donate, but we would also accept cash donations that we will match up to $500 for each food pantry. Also, any donation received (canned or cash) will put your name in for a $50 coupon at Pfaff Tire & Auto. We will be drawing one name each week in November!

We are so honored to have our Catechesis of the Good Shepherd program featured in the 2025 Annual Diocesan Appeal video. This outstanding program is only possible because of the generosity of our parishioners and friends of St. Mary's, and we are so grateful for each of you. The Annual Diocesan Appeal helps ensure that the next generation is formed in faith, surrounded by communities that nurture their gifts and guide them toward Christ. If you are able to give to the Annual Diocesan Appeal or if you would like to view the entire 2025 ADA video, please visit https://www.cdop.org/ada.

Fr. Rayson invited students to bring their backpacks to Masses last weekend for a special blessing and gave them each a backpack blessing tag.

Heavenly Father, bless these students and their backpacks as they embark on a new school year. Remind them of your presence in the classroom, on the bus and in every aspect of their lives. Guide them in their studies, help them to excel in their endeavors and inspire them to be diligent and compassionate citizens. May they always strive for wisdom, uphold the values of justice and freedom and use their knowledge to serve others. We asked this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
