Welcome to Our Parish Community of St. Lawrence!

The heart of a parish is the Eucharist, but the parish family is the body that makes it a unique and vibrant community with an exciting parish life. Whether you’re visiting us for a brief time, seeking a new parish home, returning to the practice of your Catholic faith, or exploring the Catholic Church for the first time, we are happy to have you here.


A parish is more than a place to worship; it is a community of believers and a spiritual family that is supportive and loving. It’s a place to grow spiritually, put your faith into action, and share your gifts of time and talent as disciples of Christ.

  • How can I register as a new parishioner?

    Mass Intention Policy


    At St. Lawrence, we are blessed to have a strong and faithful community. Many parishioners wish to offer Masses for loved ones, anniversaries, or special intentions. To make this sacred tradition as accessible and meaningful as possible, please note the following guidelines:


    • One Intention Per Mass:  Only one official intention can be scheduled per Mass. While you may hold additional personal intentions in your heart, only one will be publicly listed and offered.
    • Offering a Stipend: It is customary to provide a stipend when requesting a Mass. This offering is a way to participate in the sacrificial nature of the Mass and to support the mission of the Church. While not required, a stipend is strongly encouraged. The suggested offering is $25, though you may give what you are able.
    • Preferred Dates Not Guaranteed: Mass intentions are scheduled on a first come, first served basis and may be requested up to six (6) months in advance. Given the high demand, we cannot guarantee your preferred date will be available, especially for weekend or holy day Masses. Please know that the spiritual value of every Mass is the same, regardless of the date.
    • Be Considerate of Others: While there is no longer a limit on how many intentions a family may request in a calendar year, we kindly ask that you remain mindful of the needs of others in our parish who also wish to have Masses offered.

    Thank you for your understanding, generosity, and participation in this deeply meaningful tradition.

Opportunities to Get Involved

Our parish offers a variety of ways to be part of our community beyond the celebration of the sacraments. These include:


Faith Formation

Faith formation is a vital element of Catholic life, helping us grow in knowledge and understanding of our faith in Jesus Christ and the Church He gave us. A deeper understanding can lead to a more intimate relationship with the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and through the Trinity, to the Church and our family, friends, neighbors, and community. Faith formation is not just for children but for all ages. Explore the many opportunities for faith formation offered by our parish.


Parish Ministries

God calls us to use our gifts and talents to glorify Him and serve others. Our parish ministries provide numerous ways to answer that call:

  • Liturgical Ministries: Choir member, lector, altar server, Extraordinary Minister of the Eucharist.
  • Support and Outreach Ministries: Visiting the homebound, caring for the needs of the vulnerable, poor or homeless, or joining the St. Vincent de Paul Society.
  • Community and Fellowship Groups: Youth ministry, men’s and women’s groups, and events like the annual parish bazaar.


If you have an idea for a new parish ministry, we would love to hear from you. Please prayerfully consider these opportunities to get involved.

With so many ways to be part of parish life, staying informed is essential. Keep up-to-date by regularly reading the weekly bulletin, checking the parish calendar for events and Mass schedules, and visiting our website for updates.
