Ordained in May 2015, Fr. Ries ministered to the people of St. Joseph’s Parish, Bronxville from ordination to June 2018 when he came to Seton. A 33 years old Long Island native, Father is the product of a Catholic Education, in particular Chaminade High School where he met the Marianist Community.  Becoming a Marianist brother at the age of 18, he served as a High School teacher and guidance counselor. He discerned a vocation to the diocesan priesthood before final vows, eventually coming to the Archdiocese of New York  and St. Joseph Seminary.  Let's welcome him at Mass this weekend!   http://cny.org/stories/father-stephen-ries,12656
