Mark your calendars for our annual holiday market, Shop Til U Drop, presented by the St. Laurence Ladies Guild. Join us on Thursday from 1:00PM to 7:00PM at the Ave Maria Center. We'll feature over 7- vendors offering gifts, holiday decor, jewelry, home decor, food and more-including a silent auction and door prizes. Enjoy shopping, fellowship, and the joy of supporting ministries through your purchases. Admission is free---bring a friend and start your holiday shopping early!

Coping with the sudden or tragic death of a loved one can be very difficult. Survivors are often overwhelmed by the grief that follows an unexpected death, and this may complicate the grieving process. Connecting with others who are also grieving the sudden death of loved ones can facilitate the healing process. These are not counseling sessions. The Grieving Families support group is for those who are grieving the death of loved ones through murder, suicide, accident, or any other sudden death. The group meets on the 3rd Thursday of each month from 1:00 pm to 2:30 pm in the Ave Maria Parish Life Center in the St. Francis room. Join us for our next meeting. For more information or to register to attend these free sessions, please contact Agnes Fernandes at 281-933-3721 or [email protected]. Space is limited.

Pray the rosary every Friday morning with fellow parishioners in the church. You'll be done by seven and on your way to school and/or work with plenty of time! NOTE: The church is closed immediately following the rosary to prepare for Friday morning Mass.

What a great tradition to grow out of the pandemic! Gather with other families via Zoom each Friday at 8 pm to pray the Rosary. Contact Mark Coppedge in advance to get log-in details and join in. Link in this headline.
