Our Fathers: A Promise for the FutureThe Campaign for The Archbishop Joseph A. Fiorenza Priest Retirement Residence
Archbishop Joseph A. Fiorenza Priest Retirement Residence
A Case for the Retired Priest Residence
• The Pope John XXIII Priest Residence opened in 1980 with the blessing of Most Reverend John L. Morkovsky
• The diocese wanted to provide a place that priests could call home and retire after their many years of faithful service
• A new residence is needed due to the age of the current building and an increase in priests of retirement age
