Welcome to our Parish Community
Christ-led, Christ-fed, and hope filled.
DURING THE PANDEMIC CRISIS, DISPENSATION FROM SUNDAY MASS ATTENDANCE CONTINUES AT YOUR DISCRETION. WE ENCOURAGE YOU TO LISTEN TO THE MASS FROM SAINT MARY'S CATHEDRAL AT 8 AM, SUNDAY ON 92.7 FM (WQTK)
OR
WATCH THE LIVESTREAM MASS HERE.
St. Mary's Cathedral Parish--comprised of St.Mary's Cathedral and Notre Dame Church--joyfully invites the people of our "Maple City" to the journey of faith through the proclamation of the Gospel, the Celebration of the Eucharist and the Sacraments, and the loving service of neighbor.
Ogdensburg was dedicated to Our Lady from its very beginning, when in 1748 Father Francois Piquet established an Indian Fort that he named La Présentation at the juncture of the St. Lawrence and Oswegatcie Rivers. He celebrated the first solemn Mass on the site where Notre Dame Church now stands on the Feast of the Holy Trinity, June 1, 1749. The town that grew up around La Présentation became Ogdensburg, and the church was first incorporated as "Notre Dame de la Victoire" in 1859. The first St. Mary's Chapel was dedicated in 1827.
Welcome to our website, which we dedicate to Our Blessed Mother, as the entire parish is consecrated to her: "Notre Dame de la Victoire" (originally) and St. Mary's Cathedral, dedicated to the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
Our Church community of Notre Dame Church and St. Mary’s Cathedral is a family of faith to welcome and serve you and the community of Ogdensburg. The two churches were canonically joined and incorporated as St. Mary's Cathedral Parish on July 1, 2017. Fr. Joseph Morgan is the Rector.
If you are a visitor to our community we welcome you to join us for Daily mass or Weekend Mass at one of our churches. You will find links below for locations as well as Mass times in our Calendar. If you are a new or not-so-new resident of Ogdensburg looking to join our Faith community, we invite you to explore our web-site, especially the pages under the “I’m New” navigation tab.

February 10Masses at Notre Dame, 6:45 am and 5 pm, and at Saint Mary's Cathedral at Noon. Ashes will be distributed at the Noon Mass. To avoid physical contact during the pandemic, the ashes will be sprinkled upon our heads instead of marked on our foreheads in the shape of a cross. The tradition of ashes being sprinkled is an ancient practice in the Vatican and other places around the world, and it is rich in theological significance. Each year on Ash Wednesday, we are reminded that our faith is more than just outward show. We hear in the Gospel: When you fast do not look like you are fasting...wash your face, so that you may not appear to be fasting. There is a spiritual benefit to doing good acts without getting seen doing them. For this year only, we will do what we hear in the Bible: "put dust on their heads" as a sign that we are dust and to dust we shall return.Read More

LENT 2021 "MISSION" PROJECT
The COVID pandemic makes it impossible for us to plan anything like the Lenten Missions we have traditionally offered in our parish. But LENT IS NOT CANCELLED!This year, since we can't bring in a live speaker and be together by the church-full, we decided on a VIRTUAL alternative: THE SEARCH. The Search is a 7-episode series that explores the deepest questions of the human heart: Why am I here? What's life all about? What happens when we die? — and guides us through the great big story of everything, as astrophysicists, psychologists, neuroscientists, artists, chemists and professors point to one big (surprising) conclusion: Jesus Christ, and the Catholic Church.
What do you seek?

Stop, Drop and Pray
How often do you say, "I'll keep you in my prayers," to someone in a difficult place? And then not remember?
We all live "in the moment", so here's a suggestion. Ask immediately, "Would you like me to pray with you?" You will ALWAYS get a 'yes!' So what do you do next? Most of us are not skilled at extemporanious prayer. But there is an easier and extemely powerful way to make that prayer on the spot. It takes about a minute.
Take a moment right now and click this [LINK]. Barbara Alderfer, author of the book, "Stop, Drop, and Pray", will teach you this amazing method. You already know the prayer.
