St Mary Church

About this church

St. Mary Parish in Cincinnati’s Hyde Park celebrates a 4:00 p.m. Saturday vigil and Sunday Masses at 8:30 and 10:30 a.m. at 2853 Erie Avenue. Daily Mass is offered Monday through Thursday at 5:30 p.m. Reconciliation follows those weekday Masses, is available Saturday from 3:00 to 3:45, and is also scheduled Sunday from 7:30 to 8:00 and 9:30 to 10:00. The parish provides live Sunday worship online.

St. Mary’s history is closely tied to Hyde Park’s growth. Its first Mass was celebrated in a donated feed store in 1898; land at Erie Avenue and Shady Lane followed, and the first church rose where the current parking lot now sits. Today, worship and spirituality ministries include liturgical service, music, devotional prayer, formation about the Mass, and seasonal prayer services. Church School, sacramental preparation, and parish engagement groups provide routes for children and adults to participate beyond attending Mass. For newcomers, the schedule offers a useful mix of morning weekend and evening weekday choices, while the multiple reconciliation windows reduce reliance on appointments. The historic neighborhood story, current livestream, and precise sacramental times make the parish easier to understand than a name shared by many Catholic churches.
