With hearts open and spirits lifted, we offer prayers of thanksgiving and seek blessings for the journey ahead. It’s a moment to reflect on our shared mission and renew our commitment to serving others with compassion and grace.

Following the Mass, indulge in the warmth of fellowship and the joy of community at our sumptuous brunch. Share stories, laughter, and camaraderie as we break bread together, nourishing not only our bodies but also our souls. It’s a time to forge deeper connections, to strengthen bonds, and to cherish the cherished memories that make our community so vibrant and alive.

Come, be part of something truly special—a celebration of faith, friendship, and the enduring spirit of Saint Mary of the Lake.
