Father Stefano Kwak has just arrived from South Korea and is assigned as a full - time associate pastor at Saint Anthony Church, Church of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary, in North Providence, and Saint Edward Church, Providence. He resides in Saint Anthony Rectory. He is the first priest assigned to our tri - parish community since Father Kris was reassigned in 2005 after five years of dedicated service. Presentation Parish joined Saint Anthony and Saint Edward Churches in 2013. In these times the number of priests in active ministry in the Diocese of Providence continues to decrease because of retirements and less vocations. So we are very grateful to Bishop John Baptist Jung of the Diocese of Incheon for sending a third priest to assist our diocese and we hope he will visit us. As Father Stefano gets settled in, he will get acquainted with our programs and ministries. Pray for him as he makes a transition to a new culture.
