We welcome you home for Holy Week at Mary Our Queen!
Have you been searching for a new parish to call home? We invite you to become part of our Family at Mary Our Queen. If you have been away from the Church but now feel a calling to return, we welcome you back with love and acceptance!
So then you are no longer strangers and sojourners, but you are fellow citizens with the holy ones and members of the household of God, built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as the capstone. Through him the whole structure is held together and grows into a temple sacred in the Lord; in him, you also are being built together into a dwelling place of God in the Spirit. ~ Ephesians 2:19-22
