Sixth Sunday of Ordinary Time
From the Pastors Desk
Dear brothers and sisters in Christ,
Because it has been a while since I gave a run down of what has been happening in the parish, here goes:
Hopefully most of you have been enjoying the heat in the church, as we had to bring in the same company that
has done such great things in the parish center, to rework the heating system and controls. The upper church is
completely taken care of by the radiators along the walls, and if it gets too cold, or we need to bring up the heat
quickly, an air handler can be turned on, however, there has not been a need for this with one exception. That
exception was unfortunately caused by someone going into the boiler room and turning switches that they should
not have touched, not to mention they should not have been in the boiler room. Because of this, we had to pay
for a service call to rectify the situation. The air curtain in the church foyer is working for the first time in many
years, although we have to switch out three circuit breakers for a proper triple breaker.
In the lower church, a lot of work has been done by volunteers, with a lot of donated materials. Members of the
Wednesday night prayer group, La Grupa de Oracion, have built out the stage area, allowing it to be used as
additional worship space, and have committed to cleaning the downstairs area. In addition, they have assisted
Bill Wallace, in the renovation of the downstairs bathrooms, which hopefully will be finished soon. Bill was
able to get most of the materials from his employer, Cancos Tiles, and has had Bill Fontaine helping with much
of the work. Special thanks to Melita Delfina for her help in securing money to help in this project.
We are still waiting for the return of our St. Theresa of the Little Flower statue, which is out being stripped and
refinished, and thank you to those who have helped out with the restorations of the statues.
Currently, we are still in the process of searching for an Organist/Music Director, which will allow us to return
to full musical accompaniment for the 5pm and 9:45am Masses. Thanks to everyone who has helped out in the
interim, and to all of you for your patience during this time.
In the parish center, renovations to the chapel are basically complete, with the exception of a little bit of touch up
paint. John Barbaretti has been painting the Center kitchen, and Jim and Marie Bianco have painted the auditori-
um. While we have not been able to have Religious Education classes, we are doing our best to prepare for the
return to normalcy when Covid has subsided enough to allow. Part of that is the ongoing search to find an appro-
priate Director of Religious Education; though we have been fortunate that Madlyn D’Ambrose has continued to
volunteer her time since retiring, so we could have continuity.
Unfortunately, we have had to postpone various fundraisers, including the Irish Festival, which was supposed to
begin last year, will be put off until next year, since NY State will not be allowing these gatherings for a while.
The Chinese Auction has been missed for a couple of years now, and the craft fair was postponed as well. Fortu-
nately, we have been blessed with a number of generous parishioners, visitors, and some friends, who have con-
tributed to the parish during this past year, and it has been almost a year, enabling us to continue.I also have to take this time to thank Susan Schmutz. Many of you know her, and you have seen her in the
church or in the parish offices, as she is the parish secretary, and the only full time worker here. Finally, I
have to point out the efforts of Mrs. Susan Schmutz, our parish Secretary, and our only full-time worker.
Because of her efforts, our offices were only closed for nine weeks after the initial shutdown, and we have
been operating fully since last Easter, while a number of other parishes are only operating partially, or not at
all. This has not been easy, as the diocesan offices have been operating remotely, as have many other
corporations and government agencies we have to deal with on a regular basis.
While we have all been struggling with the effects of Covid, not only with health related issues, but also
financial, psychological and spiritual, our parish has continued to remain strong and grow during this time.
God willing, we will come out of this as a more dynamic parish than before. Thank you and God Bless you
all.
Pax,
Fr. Henry
