Reconciliation Times

Reconciliation is available any time by calling the Parish Office and scheduling a reconciliation. You can also knock on the rectory (located behind St. Mary’s) to request reconciliation.

Aside from that (and contrary to what it says on the diocese website), there are no currently scheduled reconciliation times.

Eucharistic Adoration Times

There is no official Eucharistic Adoration time, but it’s available any time by calling the Parish Office and scheduling admittance. You can also knock on the rectory (located behind St. Mary’s) to request admittance to Eucharist Adoration.

Parking

The church has a parking lot, but the way you park is a little strange.

Vehicles enter the driveway that is closest to the church building (via Main Street). Vehicles then park in one-way columns, which means you can’t move your vehicle again until the one in front of you leaves (or until enough of the vehicles to the side of you are out of your way).

Avoid parking in the side-most columns, as this limits your ability to exit off to the side as cars move away.

There is some limited street parking available (unmetered).

There is a community parking lot about half a block down on Chapman Road, located slightly behind and across the street from the church).

There is a restaurant, coffee shop, and Walgreens across Main Street from the church which might provide additional parking as well, though crossing is more hazardous.
