Plaque Honoring Fr. Gene’s 27 Years at OLOA Installed

WOODBRIDGE, CT - Our Lady of the Assumption Roman Catholic Church has honored Monsignor Gene Gianelli with a bronze plaque newly installed in the church. "Fr. Gene," as he prefers to be addressed, retired early this year.

The large plaque honors Fr. Gene’s 27 years of priestly service to the Parish of Our Lady of the Assumption Parish in Woodbridge.

Rev. Christopher M. Ford, the pastor of OLOA, expressed special thanks to Carlos Alvarez who worked on its design and execution and to Russ and R.J. Faroni for installing it in the main entrance of the church.

Numbers 6:24-26
24 The Lord bless you
and keep you;
25 the Lord make his face shine on you
and be gracious to you;
26 the Lord turn his face toward you
and give you peace.
