Financial Report

Here is a financial report for the past year (July 1, 2015 - June 30, 2016). THANK YOU! THANK YOU! Because of your generosity we are able to pay all our bills support our wonderful school. If you have ANY questions please bring them up to Father Ratigan or any member of the Finance Council.
Welcome

Mountains and hills, bless the Lord . . .
You springs, bless the Lord . . .
Seas and rivers, bless the Lord;
praise and exalt him above all forever. (Daniel 3:75, 77-78)

Welcome to St. Bernard's Church. We are situated in the center of the beautiful Adirondack Mountains of upstate New York - our worship of Almighty God is lifted up amidst the chorus of praise that has been echoing in the "mountains and hills," the "springs" and "rivers" for eons.

Perhaps you are a "cradle Catholic" and have always been a "churchgoer." Maybe you have done a little wandering and are interested in "coming home" again. Perhaps you've been a searcher all your life and you're seeking something deeper, more meaningful than what you've experienced so far in life. Feel free to take a look around on this site, and follow our links to see if what we offer here has something to answer your longings. I believe we do. That's because what is "on offer" here is nothing less than a new life in Christ and the gift of his Holy Spirit. There is plenty of information on the background and history of each parish. If you have children of k-5 age, we hope you will consider enrolling in St. Bernard's School.

With all the best wishes and a promise of prayers for you and yours.

Fr. Patrick Ratigan, Pastor
