St. Mary’s Parking Lot
Inroads Paving Company has scheduled the asphalt paving of St. Mary’s Church parking lot the week of May 4 - 8. The parking lot will be closed during this period. Parishioners planning to attend morning Mass that week should park along shoulder/grass of NW Washington Avenue or at the City park and walk to the Church. The residents along NW Washington Avenue near the Church have been notified about the paving project. We expect the parking lot to be ready for use for May 9 & 10 weekend Masses!
