Have You Given Thought to Becoming Catholic? Are you or do you know someone who may be interested in becoming a full member of the Catholic Church? Then a journey called the R.C.I.A. (Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults) may be just what you are looking for. (There is also a similar journey for children age 7 and older). This journey is for anyone who is ● baptized in the Catholic Church, but may not have made First Communion or been Confirmed; ● baptized in another Christian Church, but now desire to become a member of our faith community; ● someone who has not been baptized. If this sounds like something you may want to be involved in or if you have any questions, please contact Mary Ann Obark at (585) 490-0389 or email Maryann.Obark@dor.org.

In the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic, many things have had to change. Please be patient with us as we adjust one more thing to correspond to our new lived reality. Following Governor Cuomo's guidelines, we have carefully re-opened both churches, but, as you know, we are not celebrating the same number of Masses on a weekend as we did pre-Covid. Fewer Sunday Masses has caused a problem for some of our parishioners, who have regularly honored an anniversary or a birthday of a loved one by requesting that a Mass be offered that day for his or her intention. Moreover, some of our Masses on these day are pre-recorded and some are live. Not a few parishioners prefer that the Mass they requested not be a pre-recorded Mass. To honor all these new circumstances, we have revised our Mass Intention Policy for both parishes. Please click the title of this post to read the complete document.

Masses are published online on our YouTube Channel: OLQPSTM.  If you would like to be sure that you never miss a Mass again, please SUBSCRIBE to our channel.  Many people are still choosing to access our online Masses by only clicking the video link below our parish news section or the link in our website banner.  While this is certainly a path to our YouTube Channel, there are some flaws that can cause you to not find the Mass as easily through this route.
