Visitors and Newcomers

Welcome to St. Mary of Vernon. In our community life, we seek to become people who share in God’s compassion, moral vision, and saving grace. We invite you to travel along this road with us, to become part of a dynamic journey of discovery and mission.

If you haven’t yet personally visited the parish, please take the next step and do so soon. Come share in the Eucharist at a weekend liturgical celebration. After all, the Liturgy of the Mass is the "source and summit" of our Christian lives and we really need one another for our communal praise of God to be complete. Come worship with us!

In addition, we encourage you to take advantage of our various ministries and activities for all ages. Get involved as you are able or desire. You might want to share a particular God-given gift or talent, in whatever way and with whatever time you can give. To find opportunities for spiritual enrichment and outreach in service at St Mary of Vernon, browse through this website and learn more about parish ministries.

Come worship with us regularly, recharge your faith in the midst of life’s complexities, and make new friends while serving others.

We hope that you will join us! To register, please print and fill out this registration form. Mail it in or drop it off at the parish at your convenience. At the parish office or at the information desk in the church narthex, you may also pick up a welcome folder filled with information for new parishioners.

Newly registered parishioners are invited to attend one of our welcome gatherings, held in the Church Narthex several times during the year on a weekday evening . At these gatherings newcomers meet in smaller, informal groups to learn more about the parish while becoming acquainted with other newcomers, parishioners, and parish staff. Refreshments are served, and childcare is available.
