Michelangelo Ministry
"Art enables us to find ourselves and lose ourselves at the same time" - Thomas Merton
We invite you to explore the artist within you and learn to hear the Holy Spirit guiding you toward your creativity. Don't be shy! This is a ministry where the slogan "No experience necessary" holds true and is a socially supportive and safe space to explore, create, and grow. We will learn, laugh, and be joyful together through art. And if you just want to show up and paint rocks, this is the place for you! Rocks and paint will always be on hand.
2nd and 4th Monday each month | 10:00 a.m. - 12:00 noon | Parish Hall - upstairs

Paddle N Praise
Paddle N Praise meets on the
Paddle N Praise (Pickleball) is actively happening at Saint Lawrence Martyr Church. Adults aged 18 and above (regardless of skill level) are welcome to participate in the fastest-growing sport in the nation. Join us for Fun, Faith, and Fellowship as we paddle n praise in the lower courts at SLM.
2nd and 4th Saturdays of each month
from 9:00 AM to 11:00 AM.
We look forward to seeing you there!Paddle N Praise as a Unifying Force:
Paddle N Praise brings people together, fostering a sense of unity and shared experience. Pickleball at St. Lawrence is a way to build bridges and promote inclusion, regardless of skill level, age, race, or social class.Paddle N Praise Supports Christian Values:
We are a Church Community that encourages all participants to embody Christian values, such as kindness, humility, honesty, generosity, self-control, forgiveness, loyalty, sacrifice, teamwork, and respect. Participating in Paddle N Praise promotes these values and contributes to building a more supportive Catholic Community. Playing pickleball with Paddle N Praise can be a means of sanctification. Sanctification means to be made holy or set apart for God's special use and purpose. Gathering in Fellowship, we hope that participants will be progressively transformed into the likeness of Christ, growing in holiness and becoming more separated from sin. This transformation is both a Divine work of the Holy Spirit and a human response of faith and obedience.Paddle N Praise as a Metaphor for Life:
Pope Francis believes that sports offer valuable life lessons, emphasizing the importance of training, discipline, and motivation. He sees these elements as applicable not only to sports but also to everyday life. During Paddle N Praise, we encourage pickleballers to find meaning in their participation, regardless of numerical results, and to remain faithful to our Christian Values and Goals.Contact Fr.
