After Mass: Your First Catholic Church Visit

Leave, stay for a moment, or meet someone—whatever suits you.

The ending

Mass concludes with the dismissal. You may leave then or stay for personal prayer.

If you want to say hello

A priest, greeter, or parish office can answer questions about services and parish activities. Sharing contact details is optional.

Returning is your choice

Attending Mass does not register you as a parish member. For registration, adult initiation, or future visits, check the parish website or contact its office.
