St. Therese Library Hours
The Library is closed for the summer!
We are making some upgrades and will have a grand opening with refreshments in early September.
Have a blessed summer!
The Parish Library contains a variety of religious, theological, and spiritual books and DVD’s. These materials are available to all parishioners. The library is located in the Parish Life Center. The hours the library is open are listed on the door of the library.
Volunteers enable the library to be open. Please consider volunteering. We would like to extend our ability to serve our community, but we need your help to realize that goal. Volunteers working in the library are required to complete paperwork and take a Protecting God's Children Workshop. If you would like to volunteer in the Library, please contact Mary Jo Speer.
Mission: The St. Therese Library exists to serve the community by providing reading material to parishioners of all ages to strengthen their Faith and spiritual lives, while encouraging them to learn about the issues of concern in our community, as well identifying those in need and how to support them.
