19th Sunday in Ordinary Time
"Peter got out of the boat and began to walk on the water toward Jesus. But when he saw how strong the wind was he became frightened; and, beginning to sink, he cried out, “Lord, save me!” Immediately Jesus stretched out his hand and caught Peter, and said to him, “O you of little faith, why did you doubt?” After they got into the boat, the wind died down. Those who were in the boat did him homage, saying, “Truly, you are the Son of God"
~Matthew 14
A Message from Fr. Gonyo
Dear Parishioners and Friends,

We are very happy to announce that our Saint Kateri youth will be receiving the Sacrament of Confirmation this week at St. Lawrence Parish in Greece with Bishop Matano. Let us keep these young people and their families in our prayers. They are a blessing to their families and our parish community.

With fall approaching, we have already received a few requests from parish groups requesting if they could resume meeting inside parish facilities. Unfortunately, most groups will not be able to meet due the stringent cleaning requirements and social distancing that must be done. The safety of our parishioners and school students requires extraordinary precautions at this time and access is restricted. Use of masks is required! Contact the parish office for questions or concerns during this challenging time of pandemic. 

On a positive note, summer is still with us! Hopefully we can all still enjoy these August days of summer and perhaps a hot dog, hamburger or a veggie Taco too!

May God bless you!
Fr. Gonyo
