HOLY FAMILY CHURCH 129 Winthrop Street Watertown, NY 13601

Welcome!

       Here at Holy Family, we gain our inspiration from the many relationships rooted in faith, hope and love. We strive to emulate Jesus, Mary and Joseph as we live out the gospel in word and deed.
     We continue the long standing tradition of hospitality from the humble beginnings of the parish in 1895. We hope you enjoy your time on our website and that you have an opportunity to come worship with us.
     If not already a member of the parish, we warmly invite you to consider joining our parish family and walking together with our Lord.

                                In Christ's name,
                                     Fr. Mickey Demo

REMINDER: You are encouraged to check the Diocesan website for updates Covid-19. https://www.rcdony.org/covid-19

We are expecting to re-open the Church for public Masses at the end of June (we pray, maybe sooner) with a restriction on the number who can attend. Observing strict social distancing of six feet, we can safely accommodate 125 people per service.
The challenging aspect of the Re-opening of the Church and the ability to stay open during this time of COVID-19 restrictions is our ability to have the necessary groups of volunteers to keep the Church clean and safe by NYS Department of Health Standards and that of the CDC. After each Mass, the Church pews, bathrooms, all door handles, etc will need to be disinfected before the next Mass or Church activity. In addition, we will need Church members to serve as Ushers before, during, and after Church services.
If you are able to Volunteer or need more information, please call the Church Office at 315-782-2468.

Our prayers and thoughts are with you and your loved ones. As we continue to adjust our schedules and daily routines for our well-being and the well-being of all.
God Bless.

***Due to the recent changes of the personnel at the hospital, we may not be informed of a parishioner being admitted to the hospital. We encourage you to contact the Parish office if you have a loved one at the hospital, so we can keep them in our prayers.
