Home for the Holidays! Karen and Anne are joined by our parish finance director, Dan, to celebrate the Feast of the Holy Family by talking about how holy our own families are. Just kidding! Really, we commiserate about the joys and challenges of raising a family in faith in today’s real world. Take a break with us as we reflect on what Jesus’ early years might have been like for Mary and Joseph and take comfort in the fact that God’s grace is always at work even in our crazy families.

The 2024-2025 Catholic Ministries Campaign is underway! Please click on the picture to learn more about the Diocesan work the CMA supports, including vital services to our parish. Consider making a pledge, as shortfall of our CMA goal will come out of our savings. If you pledge on-line, you will be asked to identify your parish from a drop down menu - the Church of the Transfiguration—Pittsford is Parish 336.
Welcome

Below is the welcome video for the two clustered parishes - St. Catherine of Siena in Mendon and the Church of the Transfiguration in Pittsford.
