The Mission of St. Mel Parish

We joyfully live our Catholic faith for the glory of God and the salvation of souls. We welcome and celebrate the gifts God gives His sons and daughters to build up the body of Christ and serve Him in the needs of one another.

ADORATION OF THE BLESSED SACRAMENT 

All are welcome at the St. Mel Eucharistic Adoration Chapel! Whether you want to make a regular Holy Hour or just stop by for an occasional visit, you are welcome! To see our open hours and contact us, visit https://stmel.weadorehim.com.
CHILDREN'S MASS KIT
 
St. Mel Vocations Ministry has Children's Mass Kit available to borrow. Assembled by Jenni and Dave Murray who lead the Altar Server Ministry, and blessed by our Deacons, this Mass kit has all the items necessary for boys to practice the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass at home or in school.
Through play and imitation, observant little boys age 6 and older will get a chance to "be a priest". Their little brothers and sisters, or class mates can be the parishioners. The Children's Mass Kit is available to all St. Mel Parishioners to borrow for a 2 week period. Let our Catholic Faith come alive in your home for your children and grandchildren.
 
For more information or to reserve the Children's Mass Kit please email Jeanne Condon: [email protected]
