Please express my gratitude and fraternal best wishes to Father Vincent Biaggi, S.J. and to your pastor Father James Donovan, S.J. Thank you to Father Daniel O’Brien, S.J., associate pastor of the shared parishes of Saint Martha, Uniondale and Queen of the Most Holy Rosary, Roosevelt for your presence here today. Together, Bishop William Murphy, Bishop Robert Coyle, Bishop Luis Romero, Fr. Bright, Fr. Herman, Fr. Alessandro da Luz, seminarian Louis Cona and I celebrate this historic moment with you, with our Holy Father Pope Francis, with Jesuits around the world, and with the People of God of the Diocese of Rockville Centre and the universal Church. It was in 1978 that Father Joseph Austin, S.J. arrived at Saint Anthony’s in Oceanside as a new pastor with two other members of the Society of Jesus.1 Our diocese and generations of Saint Anthony’s parishioners have been blessed by the spiritual charism and evangelizing spirit of the Society of Jesus. Founded by Saint Ignatius of Loyola, the Society of Jesus or “the Jesuits”, of which our Holy Father Pope Francis is a member, is the largest male religious order in the Catholic Church.
