Welcome

Welcome to Santa Maria del Mar Catholic Church, located one block from the ocean in beautiful Flagler Beach, Florida. Our parish, centered in the Eucharist and inspired by Mary, has a long tradition of being hospitable and welcoming.

To our visitors: As you pass through our community on your travels or while here on vacation, join us for weekend and weekday Masses. Spend some time in adoration of the Blessed Sacrament or simply spend some quiet moments in the church, which is open during office hours.

To those who have recently moved to our community: Register in the parish to participate fully in parish life. Joining a ministry (or ministries) can be a great way to build a new circle of friends, while at the same time growing in your spiritual life. Our vibrant Youth Ministry and Life Teen programs are happy to welcome your children and grandchildren.

To our seasonal parishioners ("snowbirds"): We are your spiritual home during your time here in Florida. You are as cherished as our year-round parishioners.

To our year-round parishioners: You are cherished! Take a fresh look at our faith formation programs and ministries to help grow your spiritual life.

Our parish is committed to transparency and accountability. The parish staff, pastoral and finance councils, and the pastor's advisory board play an active role in parish life. At least once per year, our pastor gives a "state of the parish" report explaining how your donations of time, talent, and treasure are being used. A financial report is published annually. You will notice that we don't take up collections during Mass. Collection boxes, where you can deposit your offerings, are located as you enter the church for weekend Masses. Online donations are easy to set up and are encouraged.

God bless you. We look forward to seeing you soon!
