 Hello Fellow Parishioners, In the wake of the Coronavirus Pandemic we are suspending the preparation and taking of a meal to Friends of the Night People in April. After talking to the Director at Friends, it was decided that they will be better served by receiving cash donations until this virus is eradicated. This will help keep their staff, and our parishioners who prepare the meal and transport it safe. We know that many of you like to donate food or a dessert each month to support the Friends of the Night People program, which serves many people in need. If you would still like to do your part to help out Friends, you can send them a donation in the form of a check made out to Friends of the Night People or a gift card from one of the local supermarkets. They will use the money and/or gift cards to purchase what they need for future meals. Please send your donations to: Friends of the Night People, Inc 394 Hudson Street Buffalo, NY 14201 You can also donate on line at https://friendsof nightpeople.com/ways-to-give/donate/ Thank you for your wonderful generosity during this difficult time. Hopefully, we can get back to preparing a meal and taking it down to Friends in May. God Bless!

Hello my friends,
I can’t believe that the Blessed Triduum is upon us.  Please know that as I celebrate these three most Holy days, I will be holding each of you in prayer as I say Mass on Holy Thursday, celebrate the Good Friday liturgy and the Easter Vigil.  Believe me it is not the same without all of you filling our beautiful Church, but we are together in spirit and prayer.  I pray that soon we will be able to gather again, and what a celebration it will be!
Please know that Fr. Pat and I are at the rectory saying Mass and taking care of the phones and mail and doing our best to “hold down the fort”.  If you we can be of any assistance please do not hesitate to call.  We are more than happy to do what we can within the constraints the Coronavirus prevention has placed on us all.
Know you are missed, know you are appreciated and know you are loved!
May your Holy Week be blessed as you journey with our Lord through His Passion, Death and Resurrection. 
Peace always,
Fr. Art
