St. Mary's Church has a very long history with many stories. Together we continue to move forward and bring the Gospel message to our larger overall community.

Vocation View

We not only honor and celebrate companionship with saints in Heaven, but we are also reminded of our own call to sainthood.  How is God calling you to give your life so that may you one day share His heavenly reign?  If God is calling you to a Church vocation, call Father Andrew Lauricella at (716)847 - 5535.

If you have not received emails or text messages from Father Innocent,

Please notify the rectory at 257-9351, by leaving the information or a phone number.
