Over two dozen parishes have requests for loans from the Diocese to renovate churches, add classrooms to schools, put on a new roof, and other capital projects. They will have to wait. When the Diocese sells property in Viera this summer, St. Max is first in line to borrow the money it needs to build our Parish Community Center.” GROW in our living and loving relationship with Christ through the Eucharist. - 196 families have joined St Max in 2009. - 779 families belong to St Max. LEADour brothers and sisters to Christ. - First communion, baptisms and lifelong faith formation. - Crown Ministry financial Bible study to deepen your communion with Christ. SHARE God’s abiding love and serve the common good. - 10% of the Sunday collection is for works of mercy and justice, such as building a middle school in the Dominican Republic. - Joint use agreement with Avalon Park.
