St. Stanislaus Church has the honor to be called the Diocesan Shrine of St John Paul II. It has the privilege of housing a first-class relic of the Saint. Though a celebration of the 100th birthday of the Saint was planned pre-Covid-19 with a performance by the Saint John Paul II Schola Cantorum and a birthday party, social distancing has resulted in postponing this celebration. In the meantime, however, St. Stanislaus is sponsoring a “Create a 100th Birthday Card” for John Paul II. Children, with the help of their parent(s) and/or grandparent(s), are encouraged to send the cards they design to St. Stanislaus Church, 123 Townsend, Buffalo, NY 14212 before May 15. All entries will be judged, and five winners will be selected and announced on Sunday, May 24.
