Our biggest celebration of the year is on September 10!

What is the Marian Festival? Why Should you be there?

The Marian Festival is our way of Honoring our Blessed Mother Mary and consecrating our parish to her each year.  We celebrate her birthday, and each parishioner can make a promise to Mary.  As a community, we learn of the many wonderful things that will take place this coming year at St. Mary Parish. It is a beautiful celebration of our Blessed Mother with food, entertainment, games, and fellowship!

WHEN: Saturday and Sunday, September 9 & 10, 2023

LOCATION: St. Mary Campus.

WHO: All members of the St. Mary Community (Both Parish and School).

Registration is required for all those planning on coming to the festival on Sunday.

Praise and Worship –  Sat., September 9
At 7:00 pm come and join us, as we begin the celebration of our Marian Festival with a time of adoration. There will be beautiful praise and worship music, a time for children to place their intentions in a special way before our Lord, and moments of quiet prayer. This time of worship is geared for the whole family! Immediately following, walk to the Pastoral Center Lawn for a bonfire, s’mores, and snacks.
