A special thank you to Bishop LeVoir and all of the clergy, religious, sodalities, altar servers, musicians, families, and friends who joined our Michaelmas Vespers and Eucharistic Procession!
Michael means “Who Is Like God?” And, indeed, none but our Lord Himself is more deserving of the reverence, ceremony, and devotion we offered in processing the Holy Eucharist
through the streets of Stillwater.
Through this devotion, may we be inspired by the Holy Spirit to live our lives in a way that makes manifest the grandeur, beauty, and peace of God—that the King of Peace may be known and loved throughout the whole world. May Saint Michael and Our Lady continue to protect and intercede for
our families, our parishes, and our holy catholic Church.
In Christ, Father Barnes
Please join us at St. Mary’s Church on the First Saturday of each month after 7:30 a.m. Mass as we celebrate the Rite of the Blessing of the Child in the Womb. Come to the front near the statue of Our Lady after Mass. Our clergy will also bless Rosaries, medals, and other religious objects at this time.
We will be holding a flu shot clinic for ages 6+ at St. Mary’s Great Hall on Thursday, October 7 from 8:00-11:00 a.m. Forms will be available in the atrium after Masses the week prior. Donuts and muffins will be provided. A high dose flu shot will be available for those who qualify. Please contact Mrs. Maria Gibbons, parish nurse, with any questions at [email protected].
Our next Cor Jesu is Sunday, October 10 at St. Mary's Church from 7:15-8:15 p.m. Cor Jesu means “heart of Jesus,” and these nights are a time for communal prayer through Eucharistic Adoration, the Sacrament of Reconciliation, and songs of praise. Cor Jesu takes place on the 2nd Sunday of each month during the academic year and is open to all parishioners. We hope to see you there!

What is a “prepared environment”? The prepared environment is a Montessori concept that the environment can be designed to facilitate independent learning by the child. In a prepared environment, children work with materials of their own choice
and at their own pace. They experience a combination of freedom and self-discipline in a place especially prepared to meet their developmental and spiritual needs. These photos were taken in an Atrium where the children are working on materials helping them bridge from Level II to Level III work.
