St Joseph's Catholic Maronite

St. Joseph's Catholic Maronite Church serves as a vital spiritual home for the Lebanese community in Olean, NY, continuing a legacy since the late 19th century. Following the tragic loss of its previous building due to fire, the church has relocated to the former Transfiguration Oratory, where it fosters community and cultural ties through weekly Divine Liturgy and various outreach initiatives. Under the leadership of Father Anthony Salim, the church is developing a new community center to enhance its service offerings, including education, social gatherings, and support programs. These efforts help to address local needs, strengthening the bonds among members while promoting faith, generosity, and outreach. Explore the rich array of programs and support services provided by St. Joseph's to engage with this resilient community.
