Please call (252) 995-6370 for the Mass schedule or see our Facebook page Our Lady of the Seas Catholic Parish; on instagram “ourladyofseas”. The Sacrament of Reconciliation, Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament, and Masses .will be held at Stella Maris Chapel.  Our Pastor is Fr. Fred Smuda, OSFS, an Oblate of St. Francis de Sales. The Oblates of St. Francis de Sales (OSFS) trace their roots to the dream of St. Francis – that all people, of every social stratum, of every position, of every job, talent or condition are called to holiness. The Oblates follow Jesus Christ and live life as he did by following his example of prayer, community, and ministry.    Learn more about the order at http://www.oblates.us  .

Stella Maris translates to Mary, Star of the Seas and honors Mary, for whom the mother parish, Our Lady of the Seas is named, as well as the awe that those on the island have for the stars in the night sky.
