Expanding the Mission:

By the Grace of God, since the founding of our mission in 2002, our Lord has indeed allowed tremendous growth to our little parish in the woods. The time has now come, as was the hope of our founding members, to complete the expansion of our Church Temple in order to accommodate an ever growing parish community.

Worshiping in the center of the cross:

Beginning in 2019, the parish began ot make plans for a future expansion with the goal of doubling the size of our current worship space, while still maintianing the “Little” Church feel by keeping the faithful in close proximity to the altar. The expansion calls for each side of the existing temple to extend out into the shape of a cross, leaving us to worship in the very center of the cross which is where Christians belong!

tremendous blessings:

We had a commitment from a private donor who originially pledged to match dollar for dollar up to $500,000. As of October 2023 this generous benefactor has donated $807,000 which is much higher than their original pledge. We thank God for this individual! This benefactor has pledged an additional $180,000 over the next month.

We have a commitment from a second private donor who, for the month of October 2023, will match dollar for dollar up to $25,000.

Both benefactors have asked to remain anonymous and we are so blessed to have such giving and selfless people in our community. Glory to God for all things!

how can you help fulfill the mission?:

First and most important thing that all of us can do is pray, by adding this prayer to your daily intentions:

“O Lord our God, we ask that you bless the good intentions and works of the faithful of St. Mary Magdalene parish, and by the Grace, guidance, and indwelling of the Most Holy Good and Life Creating Spirit, allow it to build up it’s Holy Community to Your Glory. For unto You belong all glory, honor, and worship, to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit, now and ever adn unto ages of ages. Amen!
