A message from

Fr. Charlie

This Sunday we give thanks to God for the blessings he has bestowed on us through our mothers. It is their unconditional love that nurtures us into life and ultimately reveals God’s love for us.

Celebrating 175th +2!

Last weekend we came together to celebrate the accomplishment of generations of St. Mary Parishioners who made it possible for us to rejoice in our 175 +2 years in the heart of the city. We are grateful for everyone who had a hand in this long cherished history. The commitment of those who came before us afforded us this opportunity to carry on the mission and continue the work of sharing Christ's love with each other. Thank you to all who joined in the celebration and made the event possible. It was an evening filled with reconnecting, reminiscing, and lots of laughter.
