We are grateful for our Senior Priests who were with us and our families during life’s most significant and critical moments. These men continue their services as spiritual leaders, counselors, teachers and friends. Many of the priests live at the Catherine Dennis Keefe Queen of the Clergy Residence in Stamford. The Residence was built to offer an independent living opportunity for our senior priests, through the generosity of the people of the Diocese of Bridgeport.
To support our priests, living at the Clergy residence, you may contribute to services which are available for them: the building maintenance, heat, electricity, cleaning services and laundry, as well as three meals provided daily. Your generosity in providing a comfortable living environment for our senior priests is a sign that their ministry continues to be appreciated by the people of our Diocese.
