Rother Family Center opens in Ardmore

In celebration of Blessed Stanley Rother’s first feast day, Father Kevin Ratterman and parishioners at Saint Mary in Ardmore re-dedicated the newly repaired and remodeled parish hall to be named the Rother Family Center.

In attendance were nearly 300 excited parishioners. The faith-filled event included the unveiling of a new icon of Blessed Stanley.

In June 2017, Saint Mary suffered an extensive fire, causing more than $300,000 damage to the parish hall.

“During the year that Saint Mary was without a meeting place, there was no place for the people of the church to gather and celebrate holidays and special events. Now, we again have a place for the parish community to continue to grow in faith and fellowship,” said Grace Humphrey, parish secretary.

The Rother Family Center is an updated and spacious venue. For more information or to book the parish hall, contact Humphrey at (580) 223-0231 or [email protected].
