ST. STANISLAUS KOSTKA CHURCH ST. STANISLAUS KOSTKA PARISH OF GREENPOINT, FOUNDED IN 1896 TO CARE FOR THE NEWLY ARRIVED IMMIGRANTS FROM POLAND, CAN BOAST OF STILL BEING AT THE HUB OF ACTIVITIES FOR POLES. NOW CELEBRATING ITS 116TH ANNIVERSARY, IT IS PROUD OF ITS HERITAGE AND IS FORTUNATE TO HAVE IN OUR PARISH THE VINCENTIAN FATHERS AND SISTERS OF THE HOLY FAMILY OF NAZARETH WHO SEE TO OUR SPIRITUAL AND EDUCATIONAL NEEDS AS WELL AS INSTILLING IN US A PRIDE IN OUR POLISH HISTORY AND CULTURE.
THE PARISH OF ST. STANISLAUS KOSTKA CAN BE PROUD OF A RICH HISTORY AND IS PROUD OF THE FACT THAT POPE JOHN PAUL II VISITED US WHILE A CARDINAL, AS DID THE FORMER PRESIDENT LECH WALESA AND CARDINAL GLEMP. THE ST. ALOYSIUS YOUNG MEN’S CATHOLIC CLUB HAS BEEN PART OF OUR PARISH FOR OVER 100 YEARS. IT WAS ESTABLISHED TO ORGANIZE YOUNG MEN FOR PARISH AND COMMUNITY ACTIVITY.
THE KRAKOWIANKI AND GORALE ORGANIZATION WAS ESTABLISHED IN 1938 TO TEACH OUR CHILDREN POLISH CULTURE THROUGH SONG AND FOLK DANCE.

SS. CYRIL & METHODIUS PARISH LOCATED IN GREENPOINT, NY, WAS FOUNDED IN 1916 BY A GROUP OF POLISH GENTLEMEN, WHO APPEALED TO BISHOP CHARLES MCDONNELL FOR HELP. HIS EXCELLENCY ASSIGNED REV. EMIL STRENSKI THE TASK OF STARTING THE NEW PARISH. THE FIRST MASS OF THE NEWLY FORMED PARISH WAS CELEBRATED ON OCTOBER 14TH, 1917. THE PARISH SCHOOL OPENED ITS DOORS THREE YEARS LATER, IN THE FALL OF 1920. THE PARISH IS Page 31 of 61 Preliminary - LONG version As of 10/01/2013 STILL A VIBRANT PARISH EVEN TO THIS DAY, EVEN THOUGH IT ENCOUNTERED MANY HARD TIMES THROUGH THE YEARS, NAMELY WWI, THE GREAT DEPRESSION, AND WWII, WHICH IN THE END ONLY MADE THE PARISH THAT MUCH STRONGER. IN 1939, ST. COLUMBKILLS, A FELLOW GREENPOINT PARISH, FELL ON VERY HARD TIMES DUE TO LACK OF PARISHIONERS AND IT WAS REV. MROZINSKI, THE PASTOR OF S.S. CYRIL & METHODIUS AT THE TIME, WHO WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR MERGING THE TWO PARISHES. THE CURRENT CHURCH STANDS ON THE SITE OF ST. COLUMBKILLS, LOCATED AT 161 EAGLE ST. IN GREENPOINT, BROOKLYN. S.S. CYRIL & METHDIOUS PARISH HAD MANY PAROCHIAL SOCIETIES FROM ITS VERY CONCEPTION. IN 1921, THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY SODALITY WAS STARTED FOR THE YOUNG LADIES OF THE PARISH. IN 1939, THE ST. ANNE’S SOCIETY WAS FORMED, AS A RESPONSE TO THE EFFECTS FELT SHORTLY AFTER THE DEPRESSION. ITS CHIEF AIM WAS TO HAVE ITS MEMBERS, COMPOSED OF WIVES AND MOTHERS, PERFORM SPIRITUAL AND CORPORAL WORKS OF MERCY TO EASE THE PLIGHT OF FELLOW PARISHIONERS. IN 1940, THE HOLY NAME SOCIETY WAS ORGANIZED. IT WAS INTENDED TO BE A RIGHT ARM WHICH THE PASTOR COULD ALWAYS RELY UPON. THROUGH THE YEARS THESE AND OTHER SPIRITUAL SOCIETIES AND ORGANIZATIONS HAVE FORMED. THEY INCLUDE TOWARZYSTWA NAJŚWIĘTSZEGO SERCA PANA JEZUSA (SACRED HEART SOCIETY), TOWARZYSTWO PRZYJACIÓŁ KUL-U (SOCIETY OF FRIENDS OF THE CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY OF LUBLIN), RÓŻE RÓŻAŃCOWE (ROSARY SOCIETY), CHÓR HEJNAŁ, ALTAR SERVERS SOCIETY AND PARISH LECTORS. IN 1936, THE PARISH’S SUNDAY SCHOOL WAS ESTABLISHED SO THAT GRAMMAR SCHOOL CHILDREN WHO DID NOT ATTEND OUR PARISH SCHOOL COULD ALSO RECEIVE A QUALITY SPIRITUAL EDUCATION. THE CCD PROGRAM WHICH IS NOW HELD ON FRIDAY’S AND SATURDAY’S IN POLISH IS STILL GOING STRONG AND CONTINUES TO GROW EVERY YEAR. IN ADDITION, THE PARISH HOSTS A POLISH SATURDAY SCHOOL, WHICH ALSO CONTINUES TO GROW IN NUMBERS EACH AND EVERY YEAR. IT OFFERS THE YOUTH OF OUR PARISH AN OPPORTUNITY TO LEARN ABOUT THE HISTORY AND CULTURE OF POLAND. IN 1996, THE PRIESTS OF THE CONGREGATION OF THE MISSIONS OF ST. VINCENT DEPAUL CAME TO OUR PARISH. THIS ORDER OF VINCENTIAN PRIESTS, FOLLOWING THE EXAMPLE AND TEACHING ST. VINCENT DEPAUL, MAKES IT THEIR MISSION TO SPREAD THE GOSPEL OF OUR LORD AND TO SERVE THE NEEDS OF ALL POOR PEOPLE. THE PARISH CONTINUES TO THRIVE AND GROW UNDER THE CURRENT PASTORAL GUIDANCE OF REV. TADEUSZ MACIEJEWSKI, C.M., AND THE HELP OF REV JOSEPH WISNIEWSKI, C.M.

A ROAST BEEF DINNER WAS RUN AT THE LINDEN POLISH HOME AND GENERATED ANOTHER $1,000. THE GROUP IN 1981 HAD THEIR FIRST PARTICIPATION AS THE GENERAL PULASKI MEMORIAL PARADE COMMITTEE OF LINDEN (BEING INCORPORATED IN 1982).

ST. STANISLAUS KOSTKA CHURCH ST. STANISLAUS KOSTKA PARISH OF GREENPOINT, FOUNDED IN 1896 TO CARE FOR THE NEWLY ARRIVED IMMIGRANTS FROM POLAND, CAN BOAST OF STILL BEING AT THE HUB OF ACTIVITIES FOR POLES. NOW CELEBRATING ITS 100TH ANNIVERSARY, IT IS PROUD OF ITS HERITAGE AND IS FORTUNATE TO HAVE IN OUR PARISH THE VINCENTIAN FATHERS AND SISTERS OF THE HOLY FAMILY OF NAZARETH WHO SEE TO OUR SPIRITUAL AND EDUCATIONAL NEEDS AS WELL AS INSTILLING IN US A PRIDE IN OUR POLISH HISTORY AND CULTURE. THE PARISH OF ST. STANISLAUS KOSTKA CAN BE PROUD OF A RICH HISTORY AND IS PROUD OF THE FACT THAT POPE JOHN PAUL II VISITED US WHILE A CARDINAL, AS DID PRESIDENT LECH WALESA AND CARDINAL GLEMP. THE ST. CECILA CHOIR WHO RECENTLY CELEBRATED THEIR 100TH ANNIVERSARY, WAS ORGANIZED WITH THE INTENTION TO BRING YOUNG POLISH AMERICANS CLOSER TO GOD IN SONG, AND INSTILL IN THEM KNOWLEDGE OF POLISH CUSTOMS AND TRADITIONS THROUGH MUSIC. THE ST. ALOYSIOUS YOUNG MEN'S CATHOLIC CLUB HAS BEEN PART OF OUR PARISH FOR OVER 100 YEARS. IT WAS ESTABLISHED TO ORGANIZE YOUNG MEN FOR PARISH AND COMMUNITY ACTIVITY. THE KRAKOWIANKI AND GORALE WERE ESTABLISHED IN 1938 TO TEACH OUR CHILDREN POLISH CULTURE THROUGH SONG AND FOLK DANCE.
ST. STANISLAUS B. & M. PARISH ST. STANISLAUS B & M PARISH WAS FOUNDED IN 1872. ST. STANISLAUS, KNOWN AS THE MOTHER CHURCH OF THE POLISH COMMUNITY IN THE ARCHDIOCESE OF NEW YORK, WAS ONE OF THE FIRST DOZEN PARISHES ON THE LOWER EAST SIDE. FROM ITS INCEPTION ON ESSEX AND DELANCEY STREETS, THOUGH BORROWED SITES AT OTHER CHURCHES, THE FIRST SIX YEARS WERE SPENT IN TEMPORARY QUARTERS AT PARISHES ON RUTGERS, CANNON AND GRAND STREET, IT WAS ON HENRY STREET THAT THE PARISH PURCHASED ITS FIRST BUILDINGS, ON THE SAME BLOCK WHERE LILLIAN WALD HAD BEGUN HER WORK, IN THE HEART OF THE LOWER EAST SIDE. IN 1878 THE PARISH BOUGHT A FORMER CHURCH AT STANTON AND FORSYTHE STREETS, WHERE IT STAYED UNTIL 1901, WHEN IT RELOCATED TO ITS NEWLY BUILT CHURCH ON EAST 7TH STREET. THE PARISH OF ST. STANISLAUS FINDS ITS BEGINNINGS IN THE GREAT IMMIGRANT ODYSSEY TO THE LOWER EAST SIDE OF NEW YORK. ITS HISTORY OF RELOCATION FOLLOWS THE PATTERNS OF MANY OF THE RESIDENTS AND STRUGGLING ORGANIZATIONS OF OUR COMMUNITY. ITS HISTORY OF SOCIAL AND RELIGIOUS ORGANIZATIONS WHICH SERVE TO INTRODUCE ITS PARISHIONERS TO A NEW SOCIETY, AND THEN TO MAINTAIN ITS LINKS TO THE OLDER, TRANS ATLANTIC HOMELAND, ALSO FOLLOWS THE HISTORIC PATTERN OF THE LOWER EAST SIDE. IN ITS HISTORY OF IMMIGRANTS, RETURNING TO THEIR HOMELAND, AND IN SOME CASES RETURNING AGAIN, JOINING THE NEW ARRIVALS TO THE LOWER EAST SIDE, THERE IS A CONTINUING HISTORY AND CONSTANT REBIRTH. NOT UNLIKE THE COMMUNITY IN WHICH IT FINDS ITSELF, THE PARISH HAS SEEN CRESTS AND VALLEYS IN ITS HISTORY, AND HAVE BEEN TIED NOT ONLY TO THE HISTORY OF ITS NEIGHBORHOOD, BUT ALSO TO THE HISTORY OF POLAND. THE ANNUAL PULASKI DAY PARADE ON FIFTH AVENUE WAS DEVELOPED IN 1937 AS A CITY-WIDE PARADE BY MSGR. BURANT, THEN PASTOR. THE PARISH, CLEARLY RECOGNIZED AS A BI-LINGUAL, BI- CULTURAL, AND BI-NATIONAL PARISH, REQUIRING THE CONTINUING SERVICES OF SIMILARLY QUALIFIED PRIESTS, WAS GIVEN INTO THE CARE OF THE PAULINE FATHERS, A MONASTIC ORDER IN 1986. CURRENTLY, THE PARISH CONDUCTS A ‘SATURDAY’ SCHOOL WHERE POLISH AND AMERICAN BORN CHILDREN CAN LEARN POLISH HISTORY, LANGUAGE AND CULTURE. HERE THE BI-CULTURAL AND BI-LINGUAL TRADITIONS OF THIS CITY ARE CONTINUED INTO ANOTHER GENERATION.

S.S.CYRIL AND METHODIOUS R.C. CHURCH WAS ESTABLISHED IN 1917 WHEN MONSIGNIOR EMIL STRENSKI ANSWERED THE CALL OF GREENPOINT’S COMMUNITY TO FORM A NEW PARISH. THE FIRST MASS WAS CELEBRATED IN THE NEW CHURCH LOCATED ON EAGLE ST. ON OCTOBER 14, 1917.

OUR PRESENT EDIFICE WAS BUILT IN 1951 THANKS IN PART TO OUR GRATEFUL PARISHONERS. THE CHURCH CURRENTLY WELCOMES APPROXIMATELY 1,700 FAITHFUL TO ITS SIX MASSES EVERY SUNDAY, LEAD BY THE PRESENT PASTOR REV. TADEUSZ MACIEJEVSKI, C.M. AND PAROCHIAL VICAR, REV. JOSEPH WISNIEWSKI, C.M.

CCD, AS IT IS NOW KNOWN AS, IS GIONG STRONGER THAN EVER WITH 175 STUDENTS CURRENTLY ENROLLED IN GRADES 1-8. IN ADDITION TO THIS, FOR THE PAST 15+ YEARS S.S. CYRIL & METHODIOUS HAS BEEN HOST TO A VERY HIGHLY ACCREDITED POLISH SCHOOL, LEAD BY MRS. DOROTA ANDRAKA.
FROM THE VERY BEGINNING THERE HAVE ALWAYS BEEN CHURCH SOCIETIES. AMONG THE FIRST WAS THE ROSARY SOCIETY, ST. ANN’S AND THE HOLY NAME SOCIETY. WHILE FEW MWMBERS STILL REMAIN, THOSE THAT DO PARTICIPATE HOLD TRUE THE TRADITIONS OF THE ORIGINAL SOCIETIES. PARISHONERS OF S.S. CYRIL & METHODIOUS ALSO HAVE TOWARZYSTWO PRZYJACIÓŁ KUL-U, TOWARZYSTWO NAJŚIĘTSZEGO SERCA PANA JEZUSA, AND RÓŻE RÓŻAŃCOWE.
Page 60 of 61 Preliminary - LONG version As of 10/01/2013 ONLY A FEW YEARS SHORT OF ITS CENTENIAL CELEBRATION, S.S. CYRIL & METHODIOUS IS STILL GOING STRONG, AND IS SERVING THE GREENPOINT COMMUNITY WITH AS MUCH DEDICATION AS ON THAT FAITHFUL FALL MORNING IN 1917.
