Our Lady of Grace Roman Catholic Church

"The church recently entered into a 5 year contract that commenced in Nov 2023 through Oct 2028 with Suffolk County Social Services. The space is on church property and provides shelter for homeless and recovering addicts. This is just feet away from a daycare and a school. Numerous calls have been made to Suffolk County police regarding the home for Domestic Violence, overdoses and other crimes. This is a ticking time bomb in such close proximity to young children where certain types of characters are wandering around the property at all times of day. Shame on Our Lady Grace Church for not bringing this to light earlier and allowing parents and neighbors to prepare and make decisions accordingly. Everyone affected should be writing their local politicians and the church Pastor D’Avanzo regarding their concerns. Make them aware how UNACCEPTABLE this is!"

"We had a terrible experience here for my fathers funeral mass. The priest refused to allow an immediate family member to say a eulogy and his own homily did not include the names of any of his family, he called him a great grandfather which he is not, he did not take the time to learn basic facts about my father and it was disrespectful and sad."

"Beautiful church. I've been here for a wedding, funeral and Christianing."

"It's a Beautiful Church That's Very Clean. I've been here a few times now and always a Pleasure. Stop in and say a prayer, u won't be disappointed."

"We were dropping off food donations from a Christmas event we had at our house one Saturday. People are always so nice. Got to talk to one of the Father's of the church. He thanked us so many times for what we were doing. This has been our church for years now. Great feeling every time we go here."
