Save All Saints Parish: Support Our Appeal

My name is Peter Burke, and I am a member of the parish core group, a dedicated group of parishioners who have come together to fight for the future of All Saints Parish in Lockport, NY. We are working hard to appeal the Diocese of Buffalo’s decision to merge and effectively close our parish, which would dissolve our faith community and put our historic church at risk.

All Saints Parish is more than just a place of worship; it has been a cornerstone of Lockport for generations, serving as a place where families gather, ministries serve those in need, and our faith is lived out daily. We are standing together to ensure that All Saints remains a vibrant part of our community.

We have filed an appeal to the dicastery, temporarily pausing the merger, but this legal process comes with significant costs, including canonical legal fees, documentation, and filing expenses. Every donation helps us continue this fight and strengthens our case to keep our parish open.

This isn’t just about saving a building; it’s about preserving our faith community and the traditions that have shaped so many lives. We appreciate any support, whether through donations, spreading the word, or keeping us in your prayers. Together, we can Save All Saints Parish.
