When Mehlville School District cancels classes due to winter weather, it is our policy at Mary, Mother of the Church to close our campus as well. 

 This impacts activities such as Eucharistic Adoration, meetings, exercise programs,
and sports practices. 
Any cancellation of PSR will be communicated directly to the families.

Masses will be held as scheduled, but please use common sense when going out into icy weather. 

                                                     Your safety comes first!

Sunday Homilies here.
