MOTHER OF GOD

Mother of God Family of Parishes

We now have a new and glorious family name, Mother of God Family of Parishes. Mindful of how much our Lord has been honoring and promoting his Mother the past several hundred years, we cannot imagine a more wonderful name for our Family of Parishes. Every celebration of Mary has roots in her Motherhood of Christ. In scripture, she is the Archenemy of Satan, and the one Jesus will honor in a special way by gracing her to defeat the master of evil. Our Lord worked his first miracle through her intercession and countless miracles since. Let us rejoice in our new family name. May the Mother of God remain close to us always.

Any parishioner who wishes to help provide meals to the homeless at St. Vincent Hotel are encouraged to sign up for either a casserole, fruit/vegetable, or cookies. Pans and recipes are picked up in the gathering space the last weekend of each month.  On the first Saturday of the next month, the food is prepared by the parishioner and brought to the breezeway in front of the gathering space to be placed on a delivery truck. Parishioners provide about 360 meals per month. Note:  there are some date changes due to holiday seasons.  Please see schedule.
