Church of St. Mary

About this church

Church of St. Mary in Alexandria celebrates weekend Mass Saturday at 5 p.m. and Sunday at 8 and 10 a.m.; the 10 a.m. Mass is recorded and livestreamed. The fuller weekly schedule includes Mass Monday and Thursday at 5:30 p.m. and Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday at 8:30 a.m. Because Holy Days can alter weekday worship, the parish asks visitors to consult the current bulletin. Saturday reconciliation runs from 3 to 4:30 p.m., with additional published opportunities Monday from 4:30 to 5:15 and Friday after Benediction. Parking lots sit north and east of the church, with accessible spaces in the immediate east lot and street parking around the church and school.

The first Catholic church in Alexandria was founded in 1882. Today's parish states its mission as building God's church across generations by living the Eucharist, connecting celebration, lifelong formation, Catholic tradition, care for creation, human dignity, hospitality, charity, and justice. Middle-school formation combines communal prayer, learning, small-group conversation, sacraments, speakers, and service projects. High-school students can join Come to the Water opportunities, including grade-nine-through-twelve leadership and small groups. The parish also operates St. Mary's School. A family planning Sunday can use the parking guidance, attend 8 or 10 a.m. Mass, and confirm formation dates separately because academic-year programs and sacramental milestones follow their own calendars.
