Christmas Year-Round?
It was during the Christmas season that we invited you to share a picture of your Nativity scene and we thank all those who sent in pictures which became part of the photo album.
With the Christmas season in the rear view mirror, the creche is gone from it's spot near the altar and the life-sized manger no longer graces the front lawn of the church. But ...
Did You Know?:
You can still see the Nativity scene every time you come to St. Mary's.
Where?

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.

January 24, 2012We are once again asking parishioners to pray for our second graders as they prepare to receive the Eucharist for the first time. Baskets are located at all the entrances of the church with envelopes for you to take. Inside each envelope is the name of a 2nd grader and instructions. We encourage you to take a child’s name and pray for that child as they prepare to receive the Eucharist for the first time.

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
