In just a few very few days, Spring will be here, and 100 years will have passed. 100 years of worship and service, ministry and mission. In this century, the St. Rita church community has been formed, grown and flourished, matured and become vibrant!
​
Catholic families and supportive friends brought boulders, stones and building materials from their fields and homes to the site that is now St. Rita, Catholic Church of Holly. The pastor at the time named the church St. Rita, as nearly everything that had been accomplished had seemed impossible! Generations have come to be welcomed and embraced. Faith has grown and blessings have raised us all! And now 100 years of St. Rita Catholic Church are celebrated!
​
As pastor, blessed as I am by God and God‘s people of St. Rita, I encourage you to take part in the ways and in the habits, in the “newness-es” and in the traditions that are St. Rita! As this centennial year unfolds, there will be ways for us to share our faith, to give thanks to God, to embrace each and every blessing and challenge!
​
Join us!! Join in! 100 years happens only once every hundred years! Saint Rita, pray for us!
Love, Father Dave
