Westchester Area Celebrates the Feast of St. John the Baptist

07/04/2026 

On Saturday, June 27, members and friends of the Westchester Area gathered at the beautiful John Cardinal O’Connor Clergy Residence to celebrate the Feast of St. John the Baptist, our Patron.

The day began with the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, celebrated by Fr. Bob Dunn, who reflected on St. John the Baptist’s courageous witness, humble service, and unwavering call to prepare the way for the Lord. We were also honored to have Fr. Michael Connelly, Fr. Peter La Jac, and Deacon Jack Shea participate in the liturgy, making the celebration even more meaningful.

Following Mass, members enjoyed a delicious buffet luncheon filled with lively conversation, fellowship, and the opportunity to reconnect with longtime friends while warmly welcoming new members of the Westchester Area community.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for this joyful celebration of our Patron. Special thanks to Althea Howe and Fr. Bob Dunn for coordinating this special event.
