Saint Monica Catholic Church

Our facilities have been built to serve the mission of St. Monica Parish (‘Parish’ to mean both Church and School).

Use of these facilities is restricted to St. Monica staff, recognized parish ministries and registered parishioners.

Priority for facility use will be assigned as follows:

1. Pastor
2. Parish Staff
3. Internal Parish Ministries
4. Outside Catholic Organizations
5. Private Events

Programs and Meetings

Requests for space for recurring programs and meetings will be scheduled on an annual basis and should cover the needs for the 11 month period beginning August 1 and ending June 30 (We reserve the month of July for the Maintenance Department; thus, no meetings are scheduled in July.) Space requests for Staff Programs will be scheduled first in June and early July followed by Commission and Ministry Leader meeting requests in late July and August. Although we will do our best to accommodate everyone’s preferred room choice, we do not guarantee any particular space.

Requests for space should be formally made each year by completing a room request form and submitting it to the Parish Office. (Forms can be obtained on-line at www.stmonicaindy.org or by calling the Parish Office at 314-253-2193.)

Meetings should be planned to finish no later than 11:00 p.m.

Facilities must be returned to their original condition (including disposing of all trash, turning off lights, closing and locking doors) or groups will risk loosing their space privileges.

Requests from staff and ministry leaders for one-time/special meetings will be considered throughout the year and may be scheduled if space allows.

Parish space is generally not available to groups unrelated to the parish unless the event is hosted by a parish ministry and the focus of the event is in line with the ministry’s mission.

Private Events

Registered parishioners may rent space for private events (e.g. wedding receptions, baptism celebrations, etc) for up to four (4) hours, per the schedule below.

Private events should be planned to finish no later than 11:00 p.m.

Facilities must be returned to their original condition (including disposing of all trash, turning off lights, closing and locking doors) or groups will risk loosing their deposit.

Important Note: Events scheduled in St Augustine Room may be moved, rescheduled, or canceled if the space is needed for a Mercy Meal following a funeral. This space does not include the adjacent conference room.
