**IMPORTANT**

Recently the Office of Borough President James Oddo put out a misleading statement on Facebook concerning the sale of St. Anthony of Padua Church.  We have received many phone calls that St. Anthony’s Church was closing.

Rest assured, this is NOT the case.  

St. Anthony of Padua Church is NOT for sale and is NOT closing, however, the adjacent property and rectory only is for sale.   That is the property Borough President Oddo was referring to.
 

Our parish Religious Education Program is in need of Catechists for our 2019-2020 classes! If you have a passion for our faith & you love children this would be a great volunteer opportunity for you!

Please email or call if interested! All grade levels & sessions are available!
