Community Dinners

In August, 2007, St. Mary Church had joined with other churches in the Oxford community to  provide meals for those in our community that are less fortunate.  The dinners are provided every Wednesday throughout the month and are served from 5:30 - 6:30pm.

St. Mary Church hosts a dinner every 3rd Wednesday of every month in the Parish Center (the building behind the church).  These dinners are "potluck-style" and are an excellent opportunity for our families, Miami students and individual members to get involved and be of service to others.Volunteers will provide the food, set-up, serve and share the meals. It will also require clean-up and possibly some transportation needs. Set up will begin at 4:30 and clean up done by 7:00pm.
