BUFFALO, N.Y. — The Diocese of Buffalo has made significant strides in its Catholic education department with the announcement of two new appointments. Father Steven Jekielek has been appointed to a key role, bringing his extensive experience as the Vicar Forane of the Niagara/Orleans region. His leadership is expected to enhance the educational framework within the diocese, fostering a stronger community among the schools.
Additionally, the diocese introduced a new educational leader, whose name has yet to be revealed.
