Small Group and Parish Gatherings
Coffee Hour
Offered after worship services on Sundays and weekdays for fellowship. Typically coffee and some light food (e.g. cookies and pastries) are provided. Anyone can sponsor a coffee hour in memory of a deceased relative or for an anniversary, birthday or any other occasion, or just to host and serve your fellow parishioners.
Koinonia (neighborhood fellowship groups)
St. Mary’s Koinonia is a ministry of small groups (10-12 people) who share their faith life, and come together to experience what it means to be brothers and sisters in Christ. Groups meet in homes based on geographic convenience. Learn more about Koinonia or the monthly lessons here.
