Mask use in our parish church is optional but recommended. Masks are recommended in order to protect the more vulnerable in our community, like children and those with compromised immunities. If you are sick in any way or even feeling a little “under the weather,” please stay home! Our concern is for your good health and the good health of those in the pews around you. Thank you.

Mary’s presence was intended to be a […]

Since the days just following the end of the Civil War, Americans have gathered in late May to honor those who died […]
