Please consider looking at the many opportunities to invest something of yourself in the ongoing life of St. Mary's. Join hundreds of all ages who help to make our community so vibrant and spirit-filled.
We at St. Mary's believe that God becomes known through the interaction of people who care. Whether responding to the needs of the poor with the St. Vincent de Paul Group, or joining a faith formation program, or traveling to our sister parish in Haiti, or working the fish fry or the festival, we believe that God is present where people work together to make the world a better place.
-- Fr. Chuck Schramm, pastor
