From Our Pastor

Dear Parishioners,

I am very happy to report to you that our 2026 summer parish festival netted over $94,000 profit this year for our Catholic Education Center to help our parish school and PREP programs! This is the highest amount of money that the parish festival has raised after expenses in at least a decade. I want to publicly express my gratitude to Mike Smuda, who organized and supervised this great parish event. Our Business Manager, Samuel Garrett also was an invaluable help in making this year's festival a tremendous success. Thanks also to all of you who volunteered and to those of you who attended. We give praise to Almighty God, who blest us with wonderful weather every night of the festival.

On another note, I want to express in the name of our parish congratulations to Father Matthew Brody. Recently, it was announced that Father Brody, who was raised in our parish, was selected by the Vatican to study at the Pontifical Ecclesiastical Academy in Rome in preparation to enter the Vatican Diplomatic Corps. Father Brody is an exemplary young priest and we at MMR are very proud of him. Please keep him in your prayers as he prepares for this unique service to the Pope and the universal Church.

May God bless you and Mary keep you.

Prayer Ministry For MMR Parishioners' Families and Friends Undergoing Cancer Treatments

Father Shenosky and the MMR Parish Council have approved a new prayer ministry for those parishioners and their loved ones impacted by cancer. This initiative is being launched by long-time parishioner, Mary Anne Dunbar, in gratitude for the countless prayers offered during her cancer treatments over the past 3 years. It is a ministerial effort to continue to give thanks to God for the healing and blessings bestowed on Mary Anne well beyond the original prognosis.

To have your family or friends' names added to the prayer list for this ministry, simply send an email to [email protected]. Be sure to include name of the person for whom she will be praying. You may share as much or as little detail regarding the cancer for which they have or are in the process of being treated. You may be assured she will pray for them by sharing Living Hope through Jesus each day. This ministry will respect the privacy of those who are undergoing cancer treatments.

We Remember Our Deceased

Pray for Our Sick

Loving and compassionate Lord Jesus, You brought strength and healing to the afflicted. Through Your healing touch and words, You restored sight to the blind, hearing to the deaf, strength to weakened limbs, and wholeness to those afflicted with disease. Look mercifully upon those named here in their time of need. Grant them the patience they need to carry their cross. If it be Your holy will, grant them Your healing. In all things, we pray that Your will be done. Amen.
