News - September 2026

It is almost time for our next Family Fun Night! We had such a good time painting pumpkins last year, that we decided to do it again! Click for full details.

Our parish bazaar is right around the corner on October 25, 2026! Day of, donation, and volunteer information can be found by clicking on this news item! We can wait to see you there for a day full of fellowship and FUNdraising!

We are continuing to build an A-Team (Adoration Team) to cover Father John, St. Mary of the Expectation’s clergy, staff, and all parishioners in prayer. Join us for a holy hour or as long as you can stay on Mondays between 9 am and 7 pm in the church. While the Eucharist is not exposed during this time, we know that Jesus is still present in the Eucharist inside the Tabernacle. Open the full article to commit to a specific hour of prayer, one Monday or multiple Mondays.

A BIG Thank You to all who donated to the “Christmas Shack” booth. We are no longer accepting donations for 2026. We will once again be collecting new, “almost new”, and homemade Christmas items for Bazaar 2027 starting on December 26, 2026.

St. Mary of the Expectation is on a journey to know, love, and serve Christ in our parish community. Together, we must embrace Christ’s vision for missionary discipleship so our parish can thrive and be a place for others to grow together in faith. Read the full article for details.
