Welcome
St. Mary Star of the Sea is a small Catholic Church in Unionville, just west of Hartford, Connecticut. We are a thriving Catholic Community always looking for ways to bring Christ's word out to you. Here you'll find many interesting items related to Catholic life. The weekly bulletins are here, along with the words of many prayers.

Message from Father Golas
2010 has begun a new decade. The start of the 21st century is now a distant memory. The 9/11 attack on our country, the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, the economic collapse, concern for our climate and environment are the events and issues that shaped this time and will be of concern in the future. In this decade a revered leader of our church, Pope John Paul II, died and his successor Pope Benedict XVI has addressed the current state of the world with clarity, direction and charity. This was a decade of changes for our parish. The new church opened in February 2004. The old church was razed in the fall of 2005. The parish continues to grow and develop. I thank God for the commitment of so many to help make the Spirit of the Lord alive at St. Mary Church and the larger community. May God bless you in this year with heavenly peace and joy.
