Parish Mission Statement
St. Mary’s-Stony Hill is a Roman Catholic parish that is rooted in our sacramental life and the vast traditions of the Catholic Church. First and foremost, our parish life centers on the Sunday celebration of the Eucharist. The grace received from Eucharist enables us to function in our mission as a parish community. Our mission as a parish encompasses parishioners of all ages. We strive to be a place where our parishioners feel a sense of welcome and a place to have their faith nurtured through the various ministerial opportunities that occur throughout the year.
