The Catholic Community of Northern Columbia County

Welcome Fr. Larry Jerge (pronounce YER gee).  As you may know, for the last 18 months or so, we have had two priests of the Holy Cross (who are bilingual) help at Saint Joseph’s Church in Stuyvesant Falls with the Spanish mass on Sundays.  They have now been joined by Fr. Larry (who does not speak Spanish).  Their community’s residence is in Valatie.  The three priests live with a handful of Brothers who are mainly retired from active duty.  Fr. Larry has graciously offered to assist us in our One Faith Community from time to time.  Please introduce yourself when you see him.  (I’m sure he has lots of stories to tell from his many years of ministry.)  Please note that Fr. Gary is still helping us most weeks. Thanks, Fr Gary and Welcome Fr. Larry!
