We would like to extend our Prayers and Best Wishes to Fr. Innocent Amasiorah and Fr. Todd Saccoccia as they prepare for new parish assignments. Bishop Murphy has assigned Fr. Innocent as an associate pastor to the parish of St. Anthony of Padua, East Northport. He will also continue his studies at Fordham University.
Fr. Todd has been appointed an associate pastor in the parish of St. Rose of Lima, Massapequa. Both assignments take effect on Wednesday, June 25, 2014.
We are grateful for the dedicated ministry of Fr. Innocent in St. Joseph Parish for almost two years. Fr. Todd has been with us on a temporary assignment for only six months, but in that time we have come to appreciate his many gifts.
We will offer a Mass of Thanksgiving with Fr. Innocent and Fr. Todd on Sunday, June 22, at 1:00 p.m., followed by a parish reception. We invite all parishioners to share in this Mass as we wish Fr. Innocent and Fr. Todd the Lord’s blessings on their future ministry.
