Cry/Toddler Room
For the convenience of parents and young children, the cry room has windows to see into the church, speaker system to hear the Mass, and sound absorbing panels to confine sounds into the cry room. Please do not pacify children in the foyer. The sounds echo into the church. This enables the parent, priest, and congregation to more prayerfully and attentively follow the Mass.
