The Bishops of Massachusetts have informed us that legislation to expand Roe to permit abortions through the whole nine months of pregnancy is currently before both houses of the legislature. It would also remove any requirements for parental consent in the case of minors. There is a petition drive underway to place a question opposing this development on the 2020 ballot. There will be petitions at the entrances of the church on the weekend of November 9/10 for those who wish to sign it. For further information, please click above.

We received the final numbers from the Catholic Charities Appeal Office last Friday. As I mentioned at the Masses this past weekend, the extraordinary generosity of the good folks here at St. Mary’s was demonstrated once again in dramatic fashion. For the first time in the history of the Diocese, a parish raised more than $200,000.00 - and that parish was ours! We collected $204,255.40 from 683 parishioners - an extraordinary amount! Of that number, 212 were able to increase their donations, 18 returned as donors, and 69 were new. On behalf of the thousands of people who will be assisted in the coming year because of your generosity, I offer my profound thanks and prayers. The generosity of our parishioners is unequaled! Thank you!

We want to see as many parishioners as possible enroll their children in the school, particularly those who are here at Mass each week.
