The heart of Saint Mary’s is the celebration of the Holy Eucharist. Our prayer together nourishes and empowers us to live the gospel of Jesus Christ in our daily lives.
With open hearts and hands we invite you to become a part of our community of faith as we seek to give witness to God’s love for all people. It is our hope that this website will serve as a ‘doorway’ to our life as a Christian community.
