After discussion with our Liturgy Committee and staff, we would like to start a new tradition for our children at Mass here at St. Mary’s. Beginning at the Parish Thanksgiving Mass this coming Tuesday evening, and continuing every Sunday at every Mass, we will provide an opportunity for the children of our parish to make an offering of a non-perishable food item which will go to one of the local food pantries we regularly support (Simsbury Food Closet and Hartford Food Pantries).

November 15Following the Great Amen, which concludes the Eucharistic Prayer portion of the Liturgy of the Eucharist, we now move into the Communion Rite. Gathered around the table of the Lord whereupon Christ is truly present in the Eucharistic elements, we stand and join our voices (sung or spoken) in the prayer that Jesus himself taught us, the Our Father. This prayer has been part of the Mass since around the 4th century. It serves as an appropriate preparation to receive the Eucharist since the Our Father includes a petition to give us “our daily bread” which can be understood in part to be a reference to the Bread of Life, the Body of Christ we are preparing to receive.

prayer for ukraine
God of peace and justice,
we pray for the people of Ukraine today.
We pray for peace and the laying down of weapons.
We pray for all those who fear for tomorrow,
that your Spirit of comfort would draw near to them.
We pray for those with power over war or peace,
for wisdom, discernment and compassion to guide their decisions.
Above all, we pray for all your precious children, at risk and in fear,
that you would hold and protect them.
We pray in the name of Jesus, the Prince of Peace.
Amen.

St. Mary's School
St. Mary’s School is the Farmington Valley's only Catholic school for grades K-8 and in 2018 was recognized by the U.S. Department of Education as a Blue Ribbon School (the only non-public school in New England to receive the designation!)
Offering a unique blending of traditional academics and 21st century technology, St. Mary's challenges today's students to actively master subject matter. Encouraged to lead and taught to serve, students graduate with confidence, well prepared for secondary education and to assume the rights and responsibilities of Christian young adults.Click the photo for more information about St. Mary's School!

Parish Retreat - VIDEOOur Parish Retreat was quite a success!
Our experience during the pandemic can be compared to what Israel faced in the Old Testament. Our retreat -- Exile and Return -- explored OUR time of exile (cut off from family and friends) as well as our need to renew our faith and our parish life as we emerge from the pandemic.
