 Dear Parishioners,
It is with great sadness that we announce that our former pastor, Msgr. Joseph Tracy, passed away Thursday, April 30, 2026. Msgr. Tracy served here at St. Stanislaus Parish for 11 years – from 2008 to 2019. He had currently been serving as parochial vicar at Our Lady of Good Counsel Church in Southampton, PA. Prior to serving as our pastor, Msgr. Tracy served as a “backup” assistant to Cardinal Justin Rigali, and after many years doing important work for Catholic Social Services, asked to lead a parish in prayer, service, and sacramental ministry. He was then named pastor here at Saint Stanislaus. We offer our condolences to his family, and ask that you keep Msgr. Tracy and his family in your prayers. Click here for Msgr. Tracy’s obituary Msgr. Tracy had a favorite sign that read “Every day is a gift.” Remember him in your everyday life by living this simple truth. Eternal rest grant unto him, Oh Lord, |
