ST. EDWARD THE CONFESSOR

WELCOMES YOU

Learn More

As the Bishop of Albany, I want to say a clear and unnuanced statement of guilt on the part of the diocese in its handling of our predator priests and others within the diocese. It is a shameful chapter in our history and no monetary settlement such as the one reached today will erase the pain caused to survivors. On behalf of the Diocese of Albany, I apologize and promise to work diligently to prevent anything like this from occurring again. I will make myself and my staff available to you all going forward, including continuing to offer our counseling services and pastoral care.

If you joined us for the Youth Ministry’s Living Stations of the Cross, you know how truly moving it was. Watching our young people bring such depth, reverence, and meaning to each station was nothing short of powerful. Their dedication and heartfelt portrayal reminded us all of the true significance of this sacred journey. We are so proud of them and grateful for the way they helped us reflect more deeply this season. Thank you to everyone who participated, supported, and prayed with us, it was a beautiful experience we won’t soon forget.

The Knights of Columbus recently spent some time at the Ronald McDonald House in Albany, preparing nourishing, homemade meals for 30-50 people who stay there. The Knights do this twice a year in an effort to help others who are struggling with health issues. In addition, the Knights made a $500 donation to the Ronald McDonald House. Great job, KoC!!

Happy Valentine's Day! St. Valentine reminds us that love is more than a feeling...it’s a choice we make every day. A choice to be patient, to forgive, to show kindness when it’s not easy, and to put others before ourselves. His witness points us to the kind of love Christ showed us: faithful, self-giving, and enduring. Today, may we thank God for the people who help us grow in love, in our marriages, families, friendships, and parish community, and ask St. Valentine to help our hearts love a little more like Jesus. ❤️
