His announcement to the Kennedy Catholic community:
Dear Kennedy Catholic Community:
It makes me very happy to announce to all of you that on July 1st I will become pastor of St. Mary of the Assumption Parish in Katonah, NY. As l assume these new duties as pastor, I am grateful that I will also continue to head our wonderful school as its president/principal. I am very thankful to His Eminence Cardinal Dolan for his trust and confidence in me that I can give good priestly service to both of these very fine Catholic institutions. It is my heartfelt commitment to give each my love and attention as both priest and educator. The return to St. Mary's is especially significant because this is where our school started back in 1928, and we have simply carried on that tradition here at Kennedy Catholic. We have been through a great deal together during this pandemic and now I believe that Our Lord has given us a new beginning, something of which I am very happy to be a part.
