Is there a right way to pray? Bishop Parkes speaks about the Church’s tradition of prayer and he reminds us that God’s love helps us to pray without fear, sharing what’s in our hearts. Click here to view
The mission of St. Mary Catholic Church is to commit ourselves to grow spiritually and to perpetuate our faith. To create fellowship, we will provide the opportunity
for every person in the parish family to participate in a broad scope of liturgical, social, and outreach ministries.
Blessed by God with many gifts of time, talent and treasure, we are called to share them as Christ would have us do.
"Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the holy Spirit." (Matthew 28:19)

Pastor - Fr. Tim Corcoran
- We have safely resumed gatherings for public celebrations of Sunday and weekday Masses on our regular Mass schedule. Sunday Masses are the Vigil Mass on Saturday at 5:00 pm and on Sundays at 8:00 am, 10:00 am, and 12 Noon. See the third bullet below for live streamed Mass options. Weekday Masses are at 8:00 am Mondays through Fridays. There is also a Sunday Mass in Spanish at 10:45 am at Santa Maria Mission. Confessions are on Saturdays from 4:00 pm to 4:40 pm before the Vigil Mass. Those who are feeling ill or at increased risk should not attend Mass at this time. Bishop Parkes has continued until further notice his dispensation from the obligation to attend Sunday Mass for all Catholics.
- Due to continued Coronavirus concerns, attendance will be limited to 50 percent of church capacity – about 200 attendees – while those who are not in the same family also maintain six-foot social distancing. We highly encourage wearing a facemask at all Church gatherings, including Mass. If you are thinking of coming to Mass, CLICK HERE first to review our Information and Protocols for Sunday and Daily Mass Attendees. These protocols are for your safety and the safety of others, so please adhere to them.
- If you are unable to attend Mass or are not yet comfortable in doing so, you can participate in our Sunday 10:00 a.m. Mass that we will live stream on the parish website, www.stmarytampa.org. This Mass will remain archived on the website so you can also participate later in the day at another time of your choosing. You can also participate in numerous daily and Sunday Masses on television, radio, and by live streaming. Find them by CLICKING HERE.
- With your support, we continue our essential ministries and services and are slowly and safely resuming other religious events, parish and social events, and ministry gatherings. The parish office is open on weekdays from 8:30 am to Noon and from 1:00 pm to 4:00 pm. If you have questions or need something, call us at (813) 961-1061.
- Our generous parishioners have continued their financial support of St. Mary by mailing in and dropping off at the office their envelopes, checks, and contributions. More and more parishioners also have signed up for online giving, making recurring or one-time contributions by credit/debit card or direct deposit. Click below to sign up. Thanks, and blessings to all of you for your generosity and loyalty!
