St. Agatha Parish exists primarily to serve the spiritual needs of those of the Polish language and ethnicity living in the St. Louis area.  We live our faith in union with the Supreme Pontiff and the Archbishop of St. Louis.  While living in American society, we celebrate our heritage of rich cultural traditions.  Through the intercession of Our Lady of Częstochowa, the Queen of Poland, and St. Agatha, the patron of our Parish, we seek to fulfill our calling in Jesus Christ by living out our Catholic faith in love, justice and peace.

LET US BEGIN A NEW PASTORAL YEAR WITH GOD’S ZEAL The holidays are coming to an end. We welcome everyone returning from distant travels, rest, and visits to family and loved ones. Let the beginning of the new pastoral, school, and catechetical year also be an encouragement to resume regular sacramental life, participate in the Holy Mass, and pray — not only on Sunday. LET OUR SUNDAYS STRENGHTEN TIES WITH OUR COMMUNITY Sunday makes it possible to renew family ties, friendships, social bonds, and the community of the Church, from which a single person is often torn apart by the frantic rhythms of work throughout the week. Participation in the Holy Mass, common prayer, and meetings help us not to live as strangers. LABOR DAY May this Labor Day serve as a reminder of the dignity of work and the rights of workers, and provide an incentive for those in power to work for justice in the marketplace. May St. Joseph, patron of workers, aid us with his prayers. THANK YOU For all of the fruits of your labor that are shared with the church community and the countless hours of work all for the good of the parish — thank you! May God reward your goodness and generosity. May God bless your work.
