Procedures for

Scheduling an activity or requesting space at St. Mary of Sorrows Historic Church and Parish Center sites

For July 1, 2011 - June 30, 2012 (FY 2012)

To arrange for a meeting or event at St. Mary of Sorrows we ask that you submit your request as soon as possible.  The forms are available by clicking the link below or at the front office.  To schedule a meeting or activity at the Historic Church, Old Hall, Parish Center or classroom at the Parish Center you will need to:

The Forms below use a PDF format. 
It is recommended that the Adobe Acrobat Reader 9 be used for viewing.
The reader is free and can be downloaded from http://www.adobe.com/products/reader/

• Fill out a Room/Activity Scheduling Form to be completed for each different activity or group, although it is not necessary to do a form for each repetitive activity.  Please fill out the entire form and include your email address..  Once the form has been dropped off at the Parish Office or emailed to calendar@stmaryofsorrows.org it will be discussed on the next Wednesday and you will be emailed with the decision.

• You may also want to announce your activity in the bulletin.  You may do so with the Bulletin Announcement/Pulpit Announcement Form. We would ask that you submit this form as soon as possible, especially if you would like a full page color flyer in the bulletin.  We have several different options for bulletin arrangements but the sooner we are aware of your needs, the better able we are to serve you and your group or ministry.

• Along with the scheduling of the group, we have a Work Order Form available on the website or at the front desk of the Parish Office which will enable us to set up the room in a way best suited to your group.  A work order form needs to be turned in two weeks prior to an event so that we may get the set up scheduled. We always appreciate having the work orders sooner than two weeks.

• The Parish Solicitation Form is needed for any person or group that wants to solicit or collect money from the parish.  The form will secure your place on the calendar and will familiarize you with our procedures for handling donations and contributions from parishioners.

Thank you for your interest in holding your events at St. Mary of Sorrows.  We are very blessed here to be able to assist so many groups and activities in the various ministries in this parish.  We are a busy parish and your consideration and patience is appreciated as we, together, build the Kingdom of God!
