Holy Trinity Church radio Mass this weekend

The Reverend Dan Walsh, pastor of Holy Trinity Church in Dunkirk, will be celebrating Sunday Mass which will be aired on WDOE radio (1410 AM, 94.9 FM) this Sunday, March 22 at 8:30 a.m.

As a reminder, this is not a public Mass. Public Masses at this time are not able to be celebrated, so the church will not be open for people to attend in person. However, we encourage everyone to tune in and participate from home!

St. Joseph and St. Anthony Parishes announce changes

As per our guidelines from Bishop Edward Scharfenberger and the Diocese of Buffalo, St. Anthony and St. Joseph Parishes both located in Fredonia will not be offering public Masses at either one of the locations until further notice. All events are cancelled and any use of the facilities is not available, including Girl Scout, St. Vincent de Paul, Knights of Columbus meetings, bingo and private use of building space.

We are opening the St. Anthony Parish Church for private prayer, Monday thru Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 10 a,n, and St. Joseph Parish Church during regular Office hours for private prayer, that being Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, from 8:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. We will have a limited number of bulletins available at both sites during these particular times. If you so choose to visit either of the Churches please respect the space of those who may also be here for private prayer.

As both of our Parishes must maintain the utilities and any needed deep cleaning and upkeep we ask that you mail in your weekly envelopes to the Parish Office or drop them off during office hours.
