At St. Mary’s we remember in prayer those who are ill in various ways. We have our Parish Prayer Line, the members of which continuously pray for those who have requested prayer. We also have our Prayer Shawl Ministry, whose participants pray for those who will receive the shawls they knit or crochet as they are making them. We remember the sick too in the Prayers of the Faithful at Mass and in the Parish Bulletin. Click the title to read more about how we remember the sick.

Parishioners are invited to join our Faith Formation Program’s (K-6) participation in Cross Catholic Outreach - Box of Joy program by providing 100 boxes for children around the world. The kick-Off is on Sunday, October 17. We will hand out boxes to participating families: Faith Formation families, a sign-up genius was sent to request boxes; for our parishioners, email Kathy Piggott to request the number of boxes you would like.
