St Mary of the Hill Church Dedication
This short film captures the dedication of St. Mary of the Hill Church, a joyful and prayerful moment in the life of the parish. Set against the beauty of the church and its sacred liturgy, the video weaves together sound bites from the Mass with quiet, reflective visuals that highlight the significance of dedicating a house of worship to God.
The dedication was celebrated in communion with many priests and clergy, including Archbishop Jeffrey Grob, and reflects the deep spiritual heritage shared with the Discalced Carmelites of Holy Hill. Moments of prayer, proclamation, and sacred music are presented in a way that invites reflection on the meaning of the church as a place where heaven and earth meet.
Rooted in the parish mission to proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ through message, music, and ministry, this video also reflects the parish vision of living out the baptismal call: welcoming all without judgment, reaching out to those in need, honoring both the enthusiasm of youth and the wisdom of age, and praying together as one family of faith.
This dedication marks not only the blessing of a building, but a renewed commitment by the parish community to serve God and others, now and for generations to come.
