Saint Agnes Cathedral

St. Agnes is the home parish of our family for the last 115 years. We have been baptized there, attended school there and return to attend Mass there whenever in the area, happy to recognize the statue of family friend Msgr. Peter Quealy as we enter and to see the good work done to maintain this historic church, now the seat of the Diocese of Rockville Centre. Most importantly, we enjoy warmth of the parish community.

I found St. Agnes to be a beautiful Cathedral when I attended a daily Mass there in late Fall 2015. Of course, being Catholic, there was a sense of a Special Presence there. The priest and the people were very reverent and devout and I was able to strike up a couple of of conversations outside the church, so it is a friendly place also! It is located so close to the LIRR Station and right on the border of a really cute downtown area. The bakery and the coffee shop have great reputations. I look forward to moving there in the near future!

Extraordinary church with exquisite architecture and a rich history, including a visit from Mother Theresa in 1986.
