Written by Michael A. Fimiani...As a member of St. Bernadette Parish Church Community I feel the need to speak out in regards to the many rumors circulating about the future of St. Bernadette Parish’s closing.

PLEASE THESE RUMORS ARE UNSUBSTANTIATED AND COULD POSSIBLY CAUSE UNDUE CONCERN AND ANGUISH FOR OUR PARISHIONERS.

First let me say St. Bernadette Church is a very big part of not only the Morris Cove Community but the Community as a whole. We provide meals and foods to those in need no matter where they reside. Our former convent is used as a Senior Center, bereavement groups, AAA and NA meeting, and other community needs.
