St. Edmond Roman Catholic Church

Restoration update! Today we reached an exciting moment in our renovation project: the newly refinished cross has been installed on top of the roof. It’s a beautiful sight to see.
Scaffolding was also placed on the handicap-accessible side of the building as crews prepare to shift their work to that area. If everything stays on track, we expect the front of the church to be fully completed in the next two weeks as we continue to Restore & Renew.

Coinciding with the 250th Anniversary of our country's Declaration of Independence, the Knights will be holding a Novena Rosary Service from Wednesday, June 3rd to Thursday, June 11th, following the morning Mass.

The US Conference of Catholic Bishops will consecrate our country to the Sacred Heart of Jesus on June 11th, the feast of the Solemnity of the Sacred Heart, with the aim of obtaining healing, unity and spiritual renewal for our nation.

All Knights and parishioners are invited to pray the Rosary and to say a short prayer to the Sacred Heart after the morning Mass.

Please join us for this Novena as we celebrate the founding of our great nation on its 250th Anniversary.

That baby‑photo trend might have come and gone, but the joy it brought is worth revisiting.
Here’s our staff’s turn (we are missing a couple) — a little late, but a little throwback for your Monday smile. We are sure you will be able to guess who is who.

Dear Parish Family,

If you’ve driven by or walked up to the church recently, you’ve likely noticed the extensive scaffolding now surrounding the front of our building. This is the first visible step in the much needed repair and restoration work that has been planned for some time.

These repairs are essential to preserving the beauty, safety, and longevity of our church—our spiritual home. While the scaffolding may look imposing, please know that the building remains safe and fully accessible for all liturgies, ministries, and daily activities. Our contractors are taking great care to minimize disruption as the work progresses.

We are grateful for your patience and understanding during this temporary inconvenience. Most of all, thank you for your continued support, which makes it possible for us to care for the place where we gather to worship, celebrate, and grow in faith.

Please keep this project in your prayers as we move forward.

Good morning. Just a little reminder to turn your clocks ahead this weekend. We wouldn't want you to miss Mass. 😉

Just a quick note to let you know that all parish activities (including Mass) are canceled for tomorrow. There is no on-street parking at this time and we are not plowed as of yet. (We are told it will happen soon but we don’t have a guarantee.) Additionally there is still a level 3 driving restriction. Please stay at home and stay safe. Thank you.
