From the RectorDear Friends, Happy new year, one and all! In his annual message (which you can read here) our Bishop wrote, "We are formed by communities in which beauty, wisdom, and transcendence accompany care, mercy, and joy." When I read that this morning, it made me proud and thankful that I get to be the Rector of just such a place. We all know what a special place St. Mary's holds in our lives and those of our families and community. I would like to thank you for your great generosity in sharing your precious time, incredible talents, and treasure so that we don't just survive, but thrive. Despite what the world tells us, we are, little by little, a growing church. Despite the fact that many were traveling this Christmas, I nevertheless looked around and saw quite a number of new faces at the various services. We accomplished a great deal in 2025, with more on the horizon, and I look forward to doing so with you. May God continue to prosper and bless you now and throughout the year. Father Rick
