Blessed are you, Lord God, maker of all living creatures. On the fifth and sixth days of creation, you called forth fish in the sea, birds in the air and animals on the land. You inspired St. Francis to call all of them his brothers and sisters. We ask you to bless the animals and all living creatures. By the power of your love, enable them to live according to your plan. May we always praise you for all your beauty in creation. Blessed are you, Lord our God, in all your creatures! Amen.

Giant Yard Sale – June 28th Read More »
“For where two or three come together in my name, there I am with them”. (Matthew 18:20).
Jesus Christ came to this world, sent by His Father. He was born of the Virgin Mary and became one of us. He came to people to announce to them the Good News of redemption. He called on the Apostles to preach the Gospel after He would leave this world. He established the Church, of which the Apostles are the foundation.
When He was returning to God, He said to the Apostles that He will not leave them alone but would send the Holy Spirit. He said to them:
“All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything that I have commanded you. And remember, I am with you always to the end of the ages”. (Mat. 28:18-20).
For two thousand years, the successors of the Apostles proclaim Jesus’ Gospel. Today, Jesus’ Gospel is proclaimed in the whole world by many: Bishops, priests, deacons and lay people.
For the past 20 years, I have been a priest, proclaiming God’s word and working in Christ’s Church. In May of this year, our Bishop, the Rt. Rev. Anthony Mikovsky, send me to become the pastor of Saint Francis Church in East Meadow.
Every parish community is made of parishioners and their pastor who helps them on their road to God. In the parishioners` name, he presents to God their prayers, petitions, and thanksgiving, in their times of trial, happiness and sadness. Through his intervention, through the sacrifice of the Holy Mass and the sacraments, people receive God’s grace, blessings, and forgiveness of sins. The priest is the spiritual mediator between God and His people.
From the bottom of my heart, I am eager to fulfill as best as I can my priestly duties, so that in this way I can serve the Polish National Catholic Church, the parish and its people. I desire to further develop the religious and spiritual life of the parish so the parish will grow and become a community of worshipers deeply believing in and serving God.
I earnestly beg you for your prayers and your support so I can better serve God, the Church, our Parish and its people.
Feel free to contact me anytime. Stop by, call at (516) 794-5189 or send an E-mail to frandrew@stfrancispncc.org.
May God bless you.
