Parish Office Closed
The Parish Offices will be closed on Wednesday, August 2, 2023 in honor of Star Wiskeman.
Star Wiskeman - Parish Office Manager
On the evening of July 27, our Star went to her heavenly rest. A dedicated and loving wife, mother and grandmother, most of us knew her as the anchor to the Saint Patrick Parish office and community. Her forever smiling face and pleasant demeanor welcomed each and every visitor to the office and on the phone. She had the priviledge, and one which she didn't take lightly, to welcome numerous pastors and parochial vicars over her 32 years and tried earnestly to make them feel welcome, loved and in-charge! She succeeded.
While starting to plan her "retirement" for next year, Star started to think about the many ways that would encompass her soon to be free days and time. While this we know now wasn't to be, we also can remember fondly the gleam in her eye of the possibilities. God's plan of having Star sit at the front of the pearly gates directing traffic and answering the phones was indeed put into place maybe too quickly for what we would have liked, but, each of us that knew her, worked with her, shared stories and fun times with her and loved her know that our sadness will soon dissipate and we will fully embrace her and her place in heaven.

Temporary Mass Locatin Change
The air conditioning and heating unit for the Marsh Drive Church has finally quit after 31 years. While this situation is unfortunate, we have located new units and are working to have them installed.
Masses at the March Drive Church will be temporarily moved.
Starting Saturday, July 29, 2023 the 5:15pm Vigil Mass, and all Sunday Masses at the Marsh Drive Church will be moved to the Parish Activity Center.
Starting Monday, July 31, 2023 all 8:30am Daily Masses will be moved to the Shrine Church.
Sunday, 8:00am Masses will remain at the Shrine Church and will be live streamed.
Saturday 3:30-4:30pm Confessions will be heard in the Marsh Drive Church.
This is a temporary move until the installation is complete.
Please continue to watch and listen for announcements and updates on the parish website, social media, email, in the bulletin and at Mass.
Thank you for your understanding.
