St. Mary's CarnivalSt. Mary's Carnival Is Approaching Quickly
June 6th - 9th
We need many volunteers
please click here to sign-up. -
A Message From Father MetzlerWe are located in Simsbury, CT. We are a parish community of 2,200 households and over 200 students at St. Mary’s school. St. Mary’s has a strong commitment to education. We operate the only Catholic elementary school in the Farmington Valley and, at the same time, we are proud of the Religious Education program we operate for our young people in the public school system. There are nearly endless volunteer opportunities in both programs.
We welcome all families and parishioners to join us in the supremely important journey that we call life in Christ. We pray that we might always be worthy of the trust you have placed in us.

May 10, 2012The Adult Education Committee members are pleased that over 200 copies of Rediscover Catholicism by Matthew Kelly were offered for the parish-wide read during the past months. Focus groups were formed where the book was read and discussed. Now the committee would appreciate your comments about the book’s contents and its author. You may email comments to Wendy Buda (wsbuda@comcast.net) or drop your comments into The Comment Box in the vestibule of the church. Future activities of the Adult Education Committee are being planned and new members are cordially invited to share their ideas. For more information, call Betty Bible at 860-651-3175.

St. Mary's School - Growing Children in Faith and Wisdom
St. Mary’s School is the Farmington Valley's only Catholic school for grades K-8. The ability of St. Mary's School to address the whole child sets this learning community apart from others. In a safe, nurturing environment that features a consistent moral compass, students are free to excel academically and grow into the people God intends them to be.
Offering a unique blending of traditional academics and 21st century technology, Saint Mary's challenges today's students to actively master subject matter. Encouraged to lead and taught to serve, students graduate from St. Mary's with confidence, well prepared for secondary education and to assume the rights and responsibilities of Christian young adults.
For more information, please visit our school website: www.StMarysSchoolSimsbury.org
