Thanks to Susan Rodzewich and her entire team for making the 2020 Feast of Saint Mary a huge success of Faith and Fellowship. As you know, we have decided to celebrate our Feast each year as a three day event. Friday night will be Family night, Saturday night will be the Adult Social, and Sunday will be devoted to worship as we pray the Mass. Praying the Novena to our Lady, crowning the statue of the BVM, presentation of roses to our Blessed Mother, praying the Rosary and enjoying the music of our Marian choir will be celebrated across our weekend Masses. Each day, there will be an opportunity for people to shop at our wonderful Attic Treasures. Of course, food will certainly be part of our three day celebration. We have a NEW FOOD BOOTH coming for our 2021 FEAST. Once again, a BIG THANK YOU to everyone who helped in making our 2020 Feast a true blessing for our parish.
Saint Mary Church is a community of Catholics, striving to be an open and caring people, living our failth, spreading God's word, and serving Jesus' disciples to our families, our parish and our surrounding communities.
