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).

In April, 2011, the Long Island Catholic reported that the three parishes of St. Joseph (Hewlett), St. Joachim (Cedarhurst), and Our Lady of Good Counsel (Inwood) would be placed in some sort of unified care without being merged. In December, 2011, the Long Island Catholic reported that Father Moriarty, pastor of St. Joseph, would also be administrator of Our Lady of Good Counsel. "The parishes of St. Joseph, Hewlett, St. Joachim, Cedarhurst, and Our Lady of Good Counsel, Inwood, will work together to provide pastoral services."

When the parish was established in 1910, the congregation was mostly Italian. The devotion to Mary under the title Madonna del Buon Consilio arose in Genazzano, some thirty miles south of Rome, in the fifteenth century.
The bell dates from 1910. To read the inscription, please click on the photo.

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.
