WELCOME MARY, QUEEN OF ANGELS FAMILY OF PARISHES

Mary, Queen of Angels Family of Parishes is officially the Catholic identifier for the six parishes in Champaign and Logan Counties. Northeast #1 (NE-1) will continue to be the regional identifier of the Archdiocese of Cincinnati.

See Mary, Queen of Angels Family of Parishes

Begun in 1927, St. Mary of the Woods promotes the ideals of Christian community through the recognition that each person is given the manifestation of the Spirit of the common good. 

We believe in fostering spiritual growth through scripture, the  sacraments and through the use of each person's gifts in our family.

One Big Family

The Archdiocese of Cincinnati is beginning a new phase of planning for the future. The goal is to help our parishes to be 'Beacons of Light' that are vibrant and effective in bringing the Gospel to the world.

Beacons of Light

Updated 3/26/23

Sounds strange, doesn’t it? Yet this is what the Holy Father has called. In its simplest form, synodality represents a collaborative approach by all the people of God to address a particular issue for which the Holy Father seeks input. For this synod, he wants to hear from everyone on how the whole Church (not only the bishops and priests) can journey together in 
bringing the gospel message to the world. To address this “synodal” approach, he has called for all dioceses in the world to hold local consultative meetings to discuss this topic.

National Eucharistic Revival 2022 - 2025

Our world is hurting. We all need healing, yet many of us are separated from the very source of our strength.

Jesus Christ invites us to return to the source and summit of our faith—his Real Presence in the Holy Eucharist.

Learn more about the exciting journey ahead and how you can be a part of it!

OHIO BISHOPS ISSUE LETTER ON ABORTION BALLOT INITIATIVE

The letter addresses an extraordinary threat to life by a proposed amendment to the Ohio constitution that would enshrine and expand abortion at the expense of protections for preborn children and women. The bishops are calling for all Catholics to fast and pray for the safety and care for every human being at every stage of life.
