Two Parish Ministries – Many Served!
This weekend at all Masses, there will be a special blessing of volunteers who assist in two of St. Mary's largest ministries: the St. Vincent de Paul Society and the Parish Pantry. These ministries strive to live out the Corporal Works of Mercy of feeding the hungry, giving drink to the thirsty, and clothing the naked. Together, they assist more than 100 families every week with food, housing, auto, and other needs. To accomplish this, their budget from the parish (from your generosity!) is approximately $1,800 per week. If you are one of the many volunteers who make this service to our brothers and sisters possible, thank you and God bless you.
New Sidewalk
We are sincerely grateful to the donors who provided funding for a new sidewalk on the north road from the church to the school! The sidewalk will greatly improve the safety of pedestrians in that area. This weekend, please avoid the area to allow the concrete to completely cure. Please do not park in the spaces along the north road and do not use the stairs to the west of the church.
Thanks for your help and a special thank you to the kind donors!

Pentecost Victory Palm Burning
Saturday, May 18, 6:00 pm at St Mary Park
You are invited to a special celebration to conclude our Easter season!
We will burn the palms we received on Palm Sunday which reminds us of Jesus our victorious King. By praying a rosary together, we will seek the intercession of the Blessed Mother that the fire the Holy Spirit enkindle in us in a new and deeper faith this Pentecost. You are welcome to bring any broken, blessed sacramentals you have to burn in the bonfire. Palms can be dropped off beginning Saturday morning at St. Mary Park next to the pits that are dug near the baseball field. The ashes from the fire will be used for Ash Wednesday 2025.
After the rosary, the celebration continues! Bring a picnic for your family and spend time with your friends in the community. The parish will provide drinks and cookies. Bring a blanket or chair to sit on.
