  • Late Father Andrew Apostoli Recalled As a ‘Light Shining in The
    Late Father Andrew Apostoli recalled as a ‘light shining in the darkness’ YONKERS, N.Y. — At his funeral Mass Dec. 20, Father Andrew Apostoli, a co- founder of the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal, was remembered for living a life that reflected the gifts of the Holy Spirit — love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness and faithfulness. The admired preacher and retreat master, known to all as Father Andrew, also was recalled as a “light shining in the darkness.” The priest died Dec. 13 at St. Leopold Friary in Yonkers after a months-long battle with cancer. He was 75. Father John Paul Ouellette, general servant of the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal, was the principal celebrant of his funeral Mass at St. Casimir Catholic Church in Yonkers. The homilist was Father Glenn Sudano, also a member of the order. “Father Andrew conformed his life to Christ’s,” Father Ouellette said in a Dec. 13 statement. “As a priest, he was led by his relationship with the Holy Spirit, Our Lady and Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen, and continually worked toward the renewal of the priesthood.” He added: “As a Franciscan, St. Francis was the clear inspiration for his humility, humor and his simplicity in word and deed. Father Andrew’s faithfulness and joy urge us to live the joy found in the Gospel.” Andrew Joseph Apostoli was born July 3, 1942, in Woodbury, New Jersey, to Dominic and Malvina Apostoli. Raised in a strong Catholic home. Andrew entered the Capuchin Friars in 1959 at age 17. He professed perpetual vows in 1963 and was ordained to the priesthood by Archbishop Fulton J.
