The Chosen Watch Party
“The Chosen” (thechosen.tv) is a historical drama based on the life of Jesus Christ, as seen through the eyes of those who knew him. Join Mason Flemming each week to watch an episode from “The Chosen” and share your thoughts about what you have seen with a small group.
Each Sunday from 6:30 PM-8:00 am in the St. John the Baptist Room, beginning April 12.​​​​​
Easter Book Study
Sign up to read the book Rejoice and Be Glad: Daily Reflections for Easter to Pentecost 2026 by Alice Camille.
​
Her book reminds us that there is no better season to renew one’s relationship with God than Easter, the most joyful days of the church’s year. Rejoice with these
inspiring reflections on the daily Mass readings. In just a few minutes each day, the insightful meditations of Rejoice and Be Glad can help you embrace, live, and share the good news of the great paschal mystery.
Book pick-up: starting April 11.
Email groups: starting April 18.
Wrap up night at the end of the study.​​​​​

Intentional Communities
Like the Holy Trinity, our Christian love is fully expressed when it is lived out in relationship with others. At Stella Maris, we want to support any parishioners who feel the call to come together in a small community to share in their journeys of faith, catechesis and mission. Led by James Pereira, this 8 week workshop will present a new vision of creating and sustaining
intentional communities within Stella Maris.
*Postponed until a later date*.
