The Long Island Catholic has listed five new pastors of parishes in Nassau County (link HERE). These appointments by Bishop Murphy are effective June 29, 2016. The parishes with new pastors are Corpus Christi (Mineola), Cure of Ars (Merrick), St. Martha (Uniondale), and St. Gertrude (Bayville). In what seems to be a change of titles, one priest will serve three parishes: pastor of St. Joseph (Hewlett) and Our Lady of Good Counsel (Inwood), and administrator of St. Joachim (Cedarhurst).

The list continues with the appointment of Associate Pastors at St. James (Seaford), St. Rose (Massapequa), St. Dominic (Oyster Bay), St. Ignatius Loyola (Hicksville), St. Barnabas (Bellmore), Notre Dame (New Hyde Park), Holy Family (Hicksville), and Sacred Heart (North Merrick).
This blog may evolve as a mixture of the history and geography of Catholic parishes in Nassau County. In no way is this blog official. Please scroll down.

The heart of the Christian community is our Triune Lord: Father, Son, Holy Spirit. Geography, history, and numbers are not the heart, but probably I will type mostly on these topics. As the internet already provides many encouraging spiritual guides and discouraging contentious forums, I intend to offer neither.

Five Towns deanery
In the diocese of Rockville Centre, the Five Towns Deanery includes nine parishes, that is, more of southwest Nassau County than the fabled "Five Towns," Hewlett, Woodmere, Cedarhurst, Lawrence, and Inwood. In order of establishment these parishes are:
1872 - St. Joseph, Hewlett. The April 13, 2011, Long Island Catholic includes an important article, "Five Towns parishes to enter new era for collaboration." The bishop announced plans for the pastor of St. Joseph parish to become in the future also the administrator of St. Joachim and Our Lady of Good Counsel. Three parishes will remain, but the priest(s) will live in one. The article did not tell the number of Catholics enrolled in each parish. None of the three has a school.
1894 - St. Joachim, Cedarhurst
1909 - St. Raymond of Penyafort, East Rockaway
1910 - Our Lady of Good Counsel, Inwood. See also this article in Five Towns Patch about the centennial. About twenty photos are linked here.
1915 - St. Mary of the Isle, Long Beach
1926 - St. Ignatius Martyr, Long Beach
1927 - St. Anthony, Oceanside
1937 - Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal, Point Lookout
1938 - Sacred Heart, Island Park

The above nine parishes comprise the Five Towns deanery, which has two Catholic elementary schools. St. Raymond's has a parish school, and the three parishes of Long Beach and Point Lookout sponsor Long Beach Catholic Regional School at St. Ignatius Martyr.
