Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ:

Joyous Feast of the Nativity of the Most Holy Mother of God!

I am writing to update you on new contact information for our New England Diocese!

We now have a central phone number for the diocese, that is:  203.551.9066.  By tomorrow morning with all members having activated accounts, you will be able to reach:  His Grace, Bishop Benedict, Andrew Armstrong, our Treasurer, Alexia Tassmer our Secretary, and me as chancellor, on a menu from this number.  We also have an AI Assistant that will be helpful for general questions, having already been acquainted with diocesan website info.

Please update parish websites to note this access phone.  We have also a general email address, info@ocadne.org for general inquiries.  Our OCA website and diocesan website pages are also in the process of updating.  

Those involved in our strategic planning process will remember the mantra that a diocese cannot be "a bishop, in his car, with a cell phone".  In just over a year we have purchased and are maintaining the diocesan residence, and now will have good general contact information for diocesan officers.

Thanks be to God!  

In Christ,

Fr. Steven
