Bilingual Mass at 7:00 p.m.Friday March 19th, is our parish's patronal feast of St. Joseph. At 12:00 noon, our Archbishop, Timothy Cardinal Dolan, will consecrate the whole Archdiocese of New York to St. Joseph at St. Patrick's Cathedral in the City. He is doing this in light of the special "Year of Saint Jospeh" declared by Pope Francis. Every Deanery in the Archdiocese will offer the same prayer of consecration simultaneously. In Orange County, our very own, Father Dennis will consecrate the Deanery, here at St. Joseph’s in Middletown at 12:00 noon on Friday, March 19. At 7:00 p.m., we will have a bilingual Mass in honor of our parish patron. Join us for both!

Eucharistic Adoration has Returned to our Parish!
Wednesdays from 1:00 p.m. to 6:45 p.m. in the Principal ChurchFor more than 20 years Our Eucharistic Lord has been exposed for the Adoration of the faithful 24 hours a day, seven days a week in our Blessed Sacrament Chapel. This has made our parish truly special! The restrictions due to the pandemic, however, have made it impossible for us to keep our Blessed Sacrament Chapel open. As we work our way back to Perpetual Adoration, we will begin with having Exposition every Wednesday in the Principal Church from 1:00 p.m. to 6:45 p.m. before our 7:00 p.m. Spanish Mass on Wednesday begins.

Perpetual AdorationPerpetual Adoration Remains Suspended
Sadly, our Parish's Perpetual Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament must continue to be suspended in light of the global health emergency we are facing. When we are able to start it up again, we would like to have more Guardians so we can ensure Our Eucharistic Lord is accompanied through prayer every minute of every day.Will you consider becoming a Guardian of the Blessed Sacrament?
For more than 20 years, Our Eucharistic Lord has been exposed for the Adoration of the faithful 24 hours a day, seven days a week in our Blessed Sacrament Chapel. Our faithful parishioners sacrifice their time and energy to pray before the Blessed Sacrament to make up for the little love Our Lord Jesus receives from so many throughout the world. It is a wonderful thought to consider how many graces have poured forth from our parish for the sanctification and peace of the world by the prayers of our parishioners before the Holy Eucharist. Perpetual Adoration makes our Parish truly special.
Choose any hour of any day or night to honor Jesus
in the Holy Eucharist. Call Marty or Clarice Suchy
at 845-692-4510 to become a Guardian."A thousand years of enjoying human glory is not worth even an hour spent sweetly communing with Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament."
– St. Padre Pio
"Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration with exposition needs a great push. People ask me: 'What will convert America and save the world?' My answer is prayer. What we need is for every parish to come before Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament in holy hours of prayer."– St. Teresa of Calcutta
