We extend a warm welcome to our parishioners and visitors! The Church of the Resurrection is a vibrant and community-oriented Roman Catholic church. Please take a moment and look over our website. We hope it will inform, inspire, and engage you. 

Fr. Jon Tveit has been at Resurrection since June, 2016 as a newly ordained priest.  What a blessing that Cardinal Dolan assigned this fine priest to Resurrection because we are such a vibrant and supportive parish. 

All new priests are sent out for a 3 year term and Fr. Jon’s term ends June 30, 2019. He has been reassigned to the Church of St. James, Carmel, NY, a large, busy parish with a school and 1500 enrolled in Rel. Ed. The Archdiocesan policy is that young priests serve in 2 parishes before becoming a pastor – which will happen soon for 
Father Jon. 

We will miss him sorely. In recognition of Fr. Jon’s service here, he will celebrate a Mass of Thanksgiving on Sunday, June 23rd 11:15 am.  Refreshments will be served afterwards in the Lower Church Hall.   All are welcome to bid a fond farewell to our “rookie priest”. 

Monsignor Dwyer is happy to report that Cardinal Dolan has appointed Fr. David Barton, 36, as our new parochial vicar effective August 1^st. 

Fr. David was born in Louisville, Kentucky.  He studied for 5 years in Rome, Italy at The Regina Apostolorum College where he received a B.A. and S.T.L. (Masters) in Philosophy.  Ordained in Rome in 2014, his first priestly assignment was as a Chaplain at Pinecrest Catholic Academy, a large Catholic school with 1000 students, Grade 1-12 outside Atlanta, GA.   For the past 2 years, he has served as a parochial vicar at Old St. Patricks’ Cathedral, in SoHo, N.Y.C.

We encourage all to fully participate in our parish life. Resurrection offers opportunities for parishioners of all ages to use their many God-given talents to worship Him and to help others.
