We would like to help our parishioners who cannot join the Sunday Assembley due to illness, age, or physical impairment. Arrangements can be made to have Holy Communion brought to the homebound by Eucharistic Ministers from our Sunday Celebrations. Mass is livestreamed from Saint Anthony's. Mass is also televised every Sunday at 9:00am and daily at 8:30am on cable channel 10 (WLNY-TV) and daily at 8:00am and 12:00 noon on cable channel 68 (EWTN).
Baptisms can be scheduled for any day of the week or weekend. At this time due to COVID, baptisms are scheduled for individulal families rather than for groups of families to minimize health risks. Parents should phone the Parish Office to make arrangements with one of the priests for Baptism instructions as well as the Baptism date.
Arrangements are made by the bride and groom with one of the priests at least six months before the proposed date of the wedding to allow sufficient time to participate in the Marriage Preparation Program and gather necessary documents, Arrangements should be made prior to reserving the reception hall to avoid any scheduling conflict.
The sacraments are "of the Church" in the double sense that they are "by her" and "for her." They are "by the Church," for she is the sacrament of Christ's action at work in her through the mission of the Holy Spirit. They are "for the Church" in the sense that "the sacraments make the Church," since they manifest and communicate to men, above all in the Eucharist, the mystery of communion with the God who is love, One in three persons. - Catechism of the Catholic Church
