A Christmas Eve Blessing From Bishop Sweeney to Straight and Narrow

Each year, the Bishop of the Diocese of Paterson celebrates mass at the Great Hall at Straight and Narrow in Paterson.

Straight and Narrow is the largest nonprofit treatment center for people with alcohol and drug addiction in the country.

This year, due to COVID-19 safety precautions, Bishop Sweeney was unable to host this mass in person. In place of this, he offered these kind words to the service recipients and staff who will be celebrating Christmas at Straight and Narrow this year.

Merry Christmas to all!
