Church Parking:  Parking to the south of our building (other than spots directly behind the church) is the property of St. Patrick's Church.  Please leave those spaces for their use on Sunday morning.

Hospital Visitation Note:  A federal law greatly restricts the disclosure of patient information by hospitals.  As a result, the pastor and church office may not know that a member of the church has been admitted to the hospital.  If you are hospitalized and would like to notify the pastor, it is important that you or a family member inform the church office.  Call the church office at 419-636-3387.
