We have received the second decree from Bishop Malesic proclaiming St. Malachi as an Oratory (a place designated for sacred worship) of St. Patrick Parish. Please see the Letter from Fr. Gurnick and the Decree, which will both be in the parish bulletins the weekend of May 10-11.

The weekend of April 26-7 Fr. Gurnick included a Pastoral Letter in the bulletins at both parishes.

Below is the introductory letter from Fr. Michael Gurnick, Administrator of St. Malachi and Pastor of St. Patrick distributed with Bishop Malesic’s Decree stating that St. Malachi parish will become part of St. Patrick parish. You will also find the the Decree itself and a list of Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs). This information was distributed and announced at all Masses at both parishes the weekend of March 8th and 9th.
