I went in there and do not understand Spanish, but I wanted to go to Mass and their Mass is the latest on Sunday. Some of the people thought it was a bit humorous that I went there, but I don't understand Spanish. I told them I remember when the Mass was in Latin. It is still a beautiful church. If you get over in this area, you are more than welcome there.New York State Of Mindhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01079961105585950354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4005870656044436056.post-40561488438778893612018-06-04T08:05:19.699-04:002018-06-04T08:05:19.699-04:00 I had no idea this beautiful little church had be... I had no idea this beautiful little church had been reopened – now that’s a miracle! I attended Saint Gregory‘s as a child growing up in Marion and was saddened to see that it had closed as so many other beautiful Catholic churches have. I am so very glad that it is open and serving members of surrounding communities who have the opportunity to worship there. <br /><br />Professor Tina May,Syracuse, NYTinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17921489381071833350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4005870656044436056.post-89565455035448256762014-05-25T08:44:04.835-04:002014-05-25T08:44:04.835-04:00Hi Tom,

The Catholic Church where the Mexican people went to in Sodus was closed, so maybe that is how St. Gregory's was opened again. <br /><br />Don't feel bad, I didn't know there was a Catholic Church in Marion until I had to go there for a meeting. Someone had to tell me how to get there. That was before they closed it and re-opened it.<br /><br />MarilynNew York State Of Mindhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01079961105585950354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4005870656044436056.post-15974959833471923972014-05-25T08:37:24.217-04:002014-05-25T08:37:24.217-04:00The mass is in Spanish.

I think some of the people are coming from Sodus and there are a lot of people over that speak Spanish and the church they went to was closed about when St. Gregory's was. I don't know how the people did it, but they got it re-opened.<br /><br />In Rochester Diocese they closed 13 Catholic Schools one year, but they had to re-open one. They had more children than they had schools. <br /><br />MarilynNew York State Of Mindhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01079961105585950354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4005870656044436056.post-34489161501010197922014-05-25T08:32:16.779-04:002014-05-25T08:32:16.779-04:00Good Morning Marilyn,

There are many Mexican farmworker in this area. In the past the border agents would sit outside the Catholic Church in Sodus and arrest illegal workers as they left the church. A Christian act?<br />Tom The Backroads Traveller Tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04082494067802628837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4005870656044436056.post-22111453675696568922014-05-25T07:47:17.266-04:002014-05-25T07:47:17.266-04:00A very nice church!

I don't think that I've ever heard of a Catholic Church re-opening as a Catholic Church again, at least not since the mass closure of so many in recent years. <br /><br />DoreenCountryside Reflectionshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13784726289611258835noreply@blogger.com
