Diocese of Rochester has been Jesus’ visible presence for 150 years

From Catholic Courier (www.catholiccourier.com)

For 150 years, the Roman Catholic Diocese of Rochester has been the visible presence of Our Lord Jesus Christ through the prayer life and work of the Catholic Church in our verdant 12-county region in western New York. We are bound together as sisters and brothers in a culturally diverse community of faith, in communion with the Apostolic See of Rome and our Holy Father, Pope Francis, and we are nourished and strengthened by the Sacraments, especially the Most Holy Eucharist. Our ongoing proclamation of the Gospel message of faith, hope and charity unfolds in the many parishes, institutions and ministries in our beloved Diocese.

As it was in the beginning, when our diocese was formed in 1868 from the Diocese of Buffalo by an act of Pope Pius IX, we continue today to share in the church’s original mandate and mission given to us by our Savior, Jesus Christ: "Go forth and make disciples…" (Mt. 28:19).
