As the disciples faced their own challenges, they understood the reality that we are all saved in Jesus Christ and His cross and resurrection! May we begin to understand and rejoice in God's love for us. Happy Sunday!

The New York State Legislature will return to Albany next week, and the Senate may put the assisted suicide bill up for a vote. NOW is the time to make your voice heard! Reach out to your State Senator. Ask them to respect the sanctity of human life and vote NO on assisted

In today’s Gospel, Jesus prays to His Father for you and for me! He prays for our unity and that we may always recognize God's love for us.  We are truly blessed by God. Let us give thanks to the Lord on this sabbath day. See you at Mass! And have a happy Sunday!

Happy Pentecost! "Be careful what you pray for - God might actually give it to you." Just as the Apostles were surprised by the Holy Spirit's power, we too are called to bold witness and generous hearts. The world needs you because the world needs God, and He has chosen you.

The passage of the Assisted Suicide Bill by the New York State Assembly, while not completely unexpected, is truly disappointing. We turn to the Governor urging her to act boldly, consistent with her efforts to combat the suicide crisis in our state, and veto this bill. Please
