Meet Fr. Joe− Answering the call with compassionFor Gary and Susan Pickering, Fr. Joe Mazzone is more than a pastor—he is family.
Like so many priests in our Archdiocese, Fr. Joe has been a source of strength and support, helping others find Christ’s presence in times of joy and sorrow. When Gary and Susan’s daughter Marcy passed away unexpectedly during surgery, Fr. Joe was the first person they called. Marcy had been a close friend of Fr. Joe’s, and her faith life had blossomed with his help through challenging times in her life. Fr. Joe was there for the Pickerings as they said goodbye to their beloved Marcy then, and he remains by their side today. Together, they continue to grow in faith and friendship, confident that they will be reunited with Marcy again, and grateful for the hope they receive through each other in Christ Jesus.
Our priests are there for us and our families without question or hesitation. Please consider showing your gratitude by supporting your parish collection this Easter.
Thank you for helping to ensure a continuum of care and quality of life for all our active and senior priests.
