Welcome to Home
Welcome
Welcome to St. Mary Church in Glasgow, MO. Affectionately known as "Saint Mary's," this parish is dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary. She leads us to Jesus, her Son, as His first and greatest disciple, whom He made our spiritual Mother. We belong to the Diocese of Jefferson City, led by our Bishop, Shawn McKnight, in communion with our Holy Father, Pope Francis.
Being Catholic
Anyone who is interested in becoming Catholic is very welcome to join us for the celebration of Mass and other prayers. Children and adults who do not receive Holy communion may seek blessing from the Priest / Eucharistic Minister during Communion distribution. Classes during the fall are available for anyone who wishes to become Catholic. St. Mary's extends a warm welcome to those interested. In Jesus words 'Come and See'

Thank you
We are very grateful, thankful, and blessed to have such a wonderful response from parishioners and the community surrounding the Fall Dinner. Seeing the many hands come together and support the parish in countless ways was humbling and heartwarming. We are many parts, but all one body. Thank you, God and the Blessed Mother for providing us such beautiful weather! Many thanks to you all, and may God bless you and keep you safe!

Catholic Stewardship Appeal
This weekend we begin our Catholic Stewardship Appeal. This annual appeal is the primary source of funding for sustaining ministry and assistance for the 104 Catholic churches in the 38 counties that make up the Diocese of Jefferson City. The CSA theme “For I know well the plans I have in mind for you, plans for your welfare and not for woe, so as to give you a future of hope” (Jeremiah 29:11), encourages each of us to give back to God for what we have received. Please pray and give consideration on how you can help with this year’s Catholic Stewardship Appeal.

Alternative Tithing Method
In these trying times, with many individuals remaining at home to avoid the coronavirus, we wanted to remind everyone of ways to still give to the church to ensure we can still make payroll and pay our bills:
• Check mailed to St. Mary Catholic Church (421 3rd St., Glasgow, MO, 65254).
• Credit card via our website (https://www.glasgowstmary.com/). Click the “Donate Now” button at the top of the page.
• Utilize online bill pay wherever you bank, utilizing St. Mary Parish as a “biller”. Contact your bank if you have more questions on this.
• If you bank at Tri-County Trust Company, you can contact them about setting up an “automatic transfer” from your bank account to St. Mary’s bank account.
• If you receive your paycheck electronically, you can inquire from your workplace about sending part of your paycheck to St. Mary Catholic Church. Contact Tri-County Trust Company for assistance filling out this form for your employer.
Thank you so much for your generosity in this difficult time.
