Welcome to St. Mary’s Parish

The Oldest Existing Parish in the Diocese

St. Mary’s Church is located in Lyndon Station, WI. It is known as the Upper Cathedral of the dells. It was built by hundreds of Irish immigrants in 1899, and dedicated on May 8th 1900. The first Mass was celebrated in 1851 by Father Gaertner visiting from Sauk City. The first church was dedicated to St. Bridget and was located at the present day St. Mary’s Cemetery; west of Lyndon Station on Highway J. St. Mary’s is the oldest parish in the Diocese of LaCrosse.

We are located just north of the Wisconsin Dells on Interstate 90/94, exit 79.

July: Month of Ministries

The month of July is our parish Month of Ministries — a time to prayerfully consider how each of us is called to serve the Body of Christ here at St. Mary’s. Every baptized member of this community has a gift to offer, and our parish flourishes when those gifts are placed at the Lord’s disposal. We warmly invite you to explore and join any of the following ministries: ✦ Lectors, ✦ Ushers, ✦ Ministers of the Cup, ✦ Altar Servers, ✦ Choir Members, ✦ Gift Bearers, ✦ CCD Teachers. A sign-up sheet is available in the gathering space, or you are most welcome to contact the parish office for more information. No special experience is required — only a willing heart.
