In order to keep us all connected and growing spiritually during this challenging time, St. Mary Parish will continue to offer a weekly Bible Study. Group interaction for the discussion portion, will be through an online Zoom call & each individual will have access to the videos through the Ascension Press Facebook page.
St. Mary School Alumni - we want to hear from you!
Did you know that St. Mary School turns 65 soon? We’d like to hear your favorite memories about your time at St. Mary School and we want to add you to our list for a future anniversary celebration. Even if you don’t have a memory to share, please let us know you’re out there so we can include you in the celebration!
Contact Marte Frasca to get on the list.
If you are sheltered in place (and even if you are not), here are some ways to continue to practice your faith during this difficult time...
First, remember that God is with us! He never abandons us!
Pray! Tell God your needs and then spend some time listening and realize His active presence in our lives.
Lent is our annual opportunity to re-focus on the Lord and His call to be closer to Him. It's a time to ask ourselves, "Am I close to the Lord as I should be?" It's a call to repent of our sins, remove the obstacles that keep us from living in His love and turn our lives toward Him through prayer, fasting and almsgiving. So, we encourage you to take advantage of the many opportunities that are available to grow closer to Him.
Please note that our Lenten Mission that was scheduled for Mar. 23-26 is cancelled.
We encourage you to use these days to draw closer to the Lord with extra prayer or meditating on the Scripture readings for the day.
