EDITOR: ISSUE NO. 34
FR. FRANCIS E. FENTON, STL APRIL 14, 1978
Father Joseph H. Gorecki was born on July 1, 1927 in Baltimore,
Maryland. Having received his primary and secondary education in
Catholic schools (they were Catholic at that time), Father joined the
Franciscan Conventual Friars after graduation from high school and
completed his novitiate year at Becket, Mass. He then attended Saint
Bonaventure University in New Y ork State and received his
philosophical training for the priesthood a t Saint Joseph Cupertino
Seminary in Ellicott City, Maryland.
After taking simple vows in the Franciscan Order, Father left the
Franciscans and worked in industry for five years in the Baltimore area.
He then resumed his studies at Towson State Teachers College,
Maryland, where he received a Master Degree in Education, after which
he taught school for three years in the Baltimore public school system.
In 1955 Father Gorecki ' was incardinated into the Diocese of
Bridgeport, Conn. and began his theological studies at Mount Saint
Mary's Seminary in Emmitsburg, Maryland. He was ordained to the
priesthood on May 23, 1959 in Saint Augustine Cathedral in Bridgeport
by Bishop (later Cardinal) Lawrence Shehan. After serving in several
parishes in the Bridgeport Diocese, Father was assigned to the Norwich (Conn.) Diocese for two years of parish
work there. He then served one year as Chaplain at Saint Vincent Medical Center in Bridgeport, Conn.
After struggling with the "Novus Ordo" for some time, Father Gorecki joined the ORCM on March 4, 1978
(the feast of St. Casimir). The straw that broke rthe camel's back in his case was, as he readily admits, the
compulsory giving of Communion in the hand. "When I walked into Our Lady of the Rosary Chapel in Monroe,
Conn.," said Father Goreck~ "I felt that finally I was back home where I belong. In the ORCM I am back in the
right place with the Faith for which I was ordained 19 years ago."
Father Joseph Gorecki and the editor of this newsletter have known each other for some 15 years or more.
He is a most welcome addition to the ranks of our ORCM priests. For the time being at least, Father Gorecki will
be working with Father McKenna at our chapels in Monroe, Conn. and Brewster, N. Y. and will be frequently
serving ORCM groups on our Mass circuit as well
