I want you to know that if you need to talk, or want to go to Confession or have any kind of sacramental need I am happy to be of service, you can call or text me at: (607) 288-2350. You can also text me, or leave me a voicemail with prayer intentions that I can lift up to God.

I also want you to know that if you have any other need of any kind (groceries, medication, etc.) you are welcome to call or text our office at 607-241-0821 and we will do our best to help you or connect you with someone that can help you.

In this time of uncertainty it is important to maintain structure and first in that structure has to be our relationship with God. Even though the current government regulations regarding the limitations of gatherings have made our ministry difficult we are doing all we can to make sure to support your spiritual life and reassure you at every moment that God has not abandoned you and never will.

With profound sorrow and shame we share with you today the following letter from our Bishop giving an update on the Bankruptcy proceedings. To see the bishop's letter please click here.
It is extremely painful to know that an estimated 500 cases of abuse came forward. We are grateful that the victims had the opportunity to come forward and found the courage to do so, yet we are disgusted and deeply hurt by the fact that an institution that exists to continue Jesus' Mission of Love was part of such damage inflicted upon such a great number of God's beloved children. We renew our commitment to the victims. Please pray that the victims will be treated fairly and that they will find some healing through this process.
If you want to talk about this or simply want to sit in the same room and cry, please do not hesitate to contact Father Daniel or Dawn.
