Parish News & July Updates


Welcome to a new month at St. Peter St. Mary! Here are the latest updates, announcements, and opportunities to get involved in parish life:

🌞 Welcome, July!

As we journey through the heart of summer, we pray this season is one of rest, renewal, and deepened faith. May your days be filled with safe travels, meaningful moments, and the beauty of God’s creation.

“You will go out in joy and be led forth in peace; the mountains and hills will burst into song before you, and all the trees of the field will clap their hands.” — Isaiah 55:12

Wishing you a grace-filled July!
