About Us

Saint Mary Catholic Community, which celebrated its centennial in 2007, gathers for worship and prayer in the first church in the Diocese of Helena to be completely designed and built implementing the liturgical reforms of the Second Vatican Council (Vatican II). Our bishop at the time, Archbishop Raymond Hunthausen, himself one of the youngest bishops in attendance at Vatican II and the only surviving US bishop to have attended all four of its sessions, dedicated our present church building in August of 1965.

We value the call to ministry which is given to all in baptism, as we embrace the renewal and vision of Vatican II in all of our ministries, including liturgical life, faith formation, pastoral care and community outreach.

We call our parish Saint Mary Catholic Community most deliberately.  Community. You can see it; you can feel it; you can hear it from the moment you enter our gathering space. We are a community of disciples called to respond to God’s gift of faith, freely sharing what has been freely given, drawn deeply into the paschal mystery of Christ, as we strengthen God’s kingdom on earth.

If you are looking for a church to call your home, we welcome you.
