Diocesan Pastoral Planning Impacts Us All!!

"Diocesan Pastoral Planning is a prayerful and consultative process rooted in the Gospel of Jesus Christ and consistant with the teachings of the Church, the Code of Canon Law, and the directives of the Bishop. Diocesan pastoral planning aids the Bishop in his pastoral ministry and advises him on the effective use of pastoral resources and recommending ways to best use our assets." In this effort, the parish of the diocese are divided into Local Planning Areas (LPA's). St. Mary's parish representatives are: Cathy Ackers, Rich Bemis, and Marian Dolliver. Let's keep the process and our parish reps in prayer!

For more information on the Pastoral Planning process, visit the diocesan webpage: www.richmonddiocese.org/planning.

Daily Mass Location

Daily Mass will be celebrated in the Bishop Sullivan Room, located directly under the New Church in the Early Childhood Development Center. Park and enter on the side of the building closest to Pinchbeck Elementary School (doors are located below the Blessed Sacrament Chapel window) and once you are in the building, turn right into the new wing. The room is on the right as you walk down the hall.
