Parish Social Ministry at St. Mary’s Parish strives to provide ways for all parishioners to respond to the Gospel imperative in Matthew 25 to respond to the needs of our brothers and sisters. We do this through prayer, compassion, education, service, and advocacy. You want to help? Then see Get Involved!

Skip the crowds at the mall this holiday season and make a difference with the gifts you give! Check out these gift suggestions from CRS, CCHD and others.
Interested in the Environment?
St. Mary’s had an active group of parishioners who started the bike collection and recycling at the parish and encouraged all of us to be better stewards of the gifts God has given us. People moved on, and the group petered out. If you are interested in being part of a new group, get in touch with Pat.
