Thank you to the Belltown FireHouse
Three wonderful graduates of Trinity Catholic High School returned to the campus on Tuesday to inspire students to consider a career in service to others.
Assistant Chief Nick Didelot (class of ’03) impressed upon students that taking advantage of opportunities in the area to get experience as a volunteer fire fighter can have lasting positive consequences. Nick began as a volunteer at Belltown as a junior at Trinity in 2001. His positive experience led him to choose a career as a Greenwich Dispatcher where he handles life and death calls. Sean Baranowksi (class of ’12) joined Belltown as a junior in 2011. He was able to receive his EMT certification along with passing several of the Fire certifications. These qualifications were integral in receiving a position with the Wilton Police Department in 2016.
Finally, Dave Amato (class of ’14) joined as a volunteer in his junior year and currently works at Nelson Ambulance and Stamford EMS. All three graduates continue to serve as volunteers at Belltown and enjoy the camaraderie and opportunities to grow in their knowledge and help others in the community. Assistant Chief Nick commented that Belltown really seeks Trinity students as volunteers in particular, since there is a level of respect, courtesy and dedication that is part of being a Crusader. After the presentation in the auditorium, students were welcomed to explore the various fire, ladder and tanker trucks in the school’s driveway. Thank you to the Belltown Firehouse for taking time to come to Trinity!

What is Ordination?
Your Deacon is about to be ordained a Priest. Sounds great, but what does that even mean? And why should I be talking about it? Isn’t that a bit big-headed?
Well, Ordination is in many ways more about you than it is about me. There is no point anyone being ordained a priest without people to minister to. The Priesthood is a share in the ministry of Jesus Christ, who descended from Heaven to save us. It implicitly involves the whole Church for sure, but in concentric circles from the community a particular man is called to serve. In my case; that’s you!
