Congratulations Bishop-Elect Scharfenberger!
We received the news today that Msgr. Ed Scharfenberger, son of our own Ed and Elaine, has been named the new Bishop of the Albany Diocese. While it is a great loss for the Diocese of Brooklyn, Albany will soon be blessed with an outstanding priest and bishop. The Scharfenberger Family is very dear to the hearts of St. Stephen's parishioners, and we are so happy for them! Certainly there must also be great rejoicing in heaven today. We know that Jon will always support his uncle in prayer. May the Lord bless Bishop Elect Ed as he begins his new ministry.
