Our doors are always open, and we are delighted to have you visit our website to learn more about our parish and the spiritual opportunities we offer.
Our Parish Community
At the heart of our parish is our magnificent upper Church, dedicated in 1900, where the celebration of the Eucharist is central to our community life. Below, in Mary Hall, we host numerous parish events, fostering a strong sense of community and fellowship. Our Life House, located on the lower level, is home to our dynamic Life Teen Youth Ministry Program, now in its 21st year, offering a supportive space for high school teens.

The Church is open daily from 7:00 am to 6:00 pm, and Saint Joseph Chapel offers Perpetual Adoration from 6:00 am to 11:00 pm. Both the Church and Chapel are handicap accessible via the rear parking lot, ensuring everyone can participate in our services and activities.

Inspiration and Reflection
Reflect on the wisdom of St. Bernard of Clairvaux: “A saint is not someone who never sins, but one who sins less and less frequently and gets up more and more quickly.” Let us strive to live a life of holiness, clinging to God's grace and mercy.

"A glorious house of worship! So beautiful and peaceful. The pastor and pastoral staff are so kind, warm and welcoming. The musical group is outstanding. You may think that you are in Heaven! If you are seeking guidance or need to make peace, just meet with the pastoral team as they are really compassionate and supportive. Everyone is welcomed here. Plenty of parking. Info and hours are online. Many Blessings!"
"A beautiful church. My Aunt's funeral was here and was done so beautifully. The priest was very personable with a sense of humor. Loved it!"
"St. Mary's made arranging the Sacrement of Baptism for our grandson very easy. They were accomodating and understanding during these pandemic times. Deacon Kelly McCormick officiated a holy and beautiful ceremony. He is great with kids!"
"Great place to worship our Lord! The priest's are fantastic and it is a great Parish! I don't live nearby but to me it is worth the trek. I make the adoration chapel a must stop after church. The St. JOSEPH Adoration chapel is open from 6am until 11 pm every day!!! Take advantage of this opportunity to spend some quiet time with Jesus. You cannot go wrong and it is just about that meditation or however you want to interact with Jesus while you're there. GOD BLESS YOU!!!"
"A beautiful baptism of my new grandson! It was special ceremony."
