Welcome to Saint Mary Magdalene Catholic Church!

Hey there! If you're looking for a warm, welcoming Catholic community in Gilbert, Arizona, you've found the right place. We're located at 2654 E. Williams Field Rd, and whether you're a lifelong Catholic, just exploring the faith, or somewhere in between, we'd love to have you join us.

Our Home Away From Home

Saint Mary Magdalene isn't just a building - it's a family. There's something special about walking into Mass and seeing familiar faces, knowing you're surrounded by people who genuinely care about you and your spiritual journey.

When We Gather for Mass

Here's when you can join us for the most important hour of the week:

• Saturday Vigil: 4:30pm (perfect if you want to get your Sunday obligation done early!)
• Sunday: 7:30am, 9:00am, 11:00am, and 5:00pm (we've got options for early birds and night owls)
• Daily Mass: Monday-Friday at 6:30am and 8:30am, Saturday at 8:30am

Pro tip: The 9am Sunday Mass tends to be our most popular, so come a few minutes early if you want a seat up front!

Confession Times - God's Mercy Awaits

Let's be real - we all need confession sometimes. I know I do! Here's when you can experience God's forgiveness:

• Saturday: 3:00-4:00pm (right before the Vigil Mass)
• Or by appointment (just call the office - our priests are happy to meet with you)

Don't be nervous if it's been a while. I remember my first confession back after some time away - the priest was so kind and helpful. It's never as scary as we build it up to be in our heads.

Growing Together in Faith

One of my favorite things about our parish is all the ways we can grow together. Check out these opportunities:

• Young Adult Group (shoutout to my fellow 20s/30s Catholics!)
• Bible studies that actually feel relatable
• Rosary prayer groups (perfect if you're trying to build a prayer habit)
• Volunteer opportunities that let us live out our faith

There's truly something for everyone, whether you're super involved or just dipping your toes in.

Why I Love This Parish

As someone in their late 20s trying to figure out adulthood while keeping my faith strong, this parish has been a game-changer. The homilies actually make sense for my life stage, the community feels authentic (no pretending to have it all together here!), and there are so many ways to get connected at your own pace.

Plus, the church itself is beautiful without being intimidating. Just the right balance of reverent and welcoming.

Come See For Yourself!

Whether you're new to town, returning to the faith, or just curious, we'd love to welcome you. Don't worry about having it all figured out - none of us do! Mass is the perfect place to start, and from there, who knows where God might lead you in our community.
