In honor of those who donated materials, supplies and labor to update our Parish Multi-Purpose Room, the St. Max Knights of Columbus and the St. Max Home and School Association will be hosting a Reception following the 4pm Mass on Saturday, August 25th, 2018. Please stop by the Multi-Purpose Room after Mass for some refreshments, meet the people who did the work and get a first look at the renovations. We are grateful to everyone involved for creating a space that is warm and welcoming for our Parish and School events. Special thanks go out to: St. Max Knights of Columbus, St. Max Home & School Association, John Mattia (parishioner), American Interior Construction & Blinds, Inc. (donated ceiling tiles), Pat Frantz (Art Teacher & parishioner).

Every month, generous parishioners at St. Max sponsor a food drive for local charities, helping to stock the emergency food cupboards in our area. May’s drive will be in conjunction with the yearly Manna Canned Food Collection of the Archdiocese. Food will still go to our local charity, at St. Agnes Day Room. Many struggling families and individuals turn to the emergency food cupboards for support during times of crisis. Their lives are blessed by the generosity of the faithful of our parish. Items in greatest need are beef stew, tuna fish, fruit, vegetables, pasta, soups and baked beans. Manna Bags will be distributed at all of our Masses on the weekend of April 28-29, 2018. Kindly return your filled Manna Bags on May 5th & 6th, 2018 and they will be taken to the St. Agnes Day Room. We thank you for your generosity.

Dear Parishioners,  Please note below a change in our schedule of Masses & Confession for all Saturdays throughout the year.  In parishes where the Vigil Mass of Sunday was moved to 4:00pm, Mass attendance has increased.  This is my sincere hope.  Parishes that have Confessions on Saturday mornings have reported an increase in the celebration of this Sacrament.  In order to keep time open for funerals it is necessary to change the Saturday morning Mass to 8:00am.  Confessions will be 8:30 - 9:30am.  I hope this schedule will prove helpful to you in the ongoing practice of our faith.  This schedule will become effective on Saturday, November 25, 2017.                                                                         Msgr. Carroll

Please note that Benediction on Tuesday, May 2, will be at 4PM (not the normal 7PM) because of the PREP closing Mass.

The Spring 2014 Chester County "40 Days for Life" campaign will begin on Ash Wednesday, March 5th and conclude on Palm Sunday, April 13th. Many volunteers are needed. Please sign up in the church vestibule.
