The Chester County parish celebrates a 5 p.m. Mass on Sunday evenings, with many ministries performed by youths of the parish. Father Edward Hamilton, a retired priest, was the celebrant and homilist for Mass July 17, which was well attended even in the summertime. St. Isaac’s, which also celebrates Mass at 8 and 10:30 a.m. and noon on Sundays, is located at 50 West Walker Road and Valley Forge Road in Wayne. (Photos by Sarah Webb)

What beautiful pictures! St. Isaac Jogues is a parish with MANY attending the daily 12:05 Mass. It is such a great blessing to have a parish which offers a noontime DAILY Mass–just imagine the people making the effort during their lunch break and all others who were unable to attend an earlier Mass coming to worship and praise the Lord! Father Hamilton is such an example of a holy, humble priest! The Pastor, Father Moerman, is an outstanding homilist who, as I have told him. “always does his homework” meaning that he ties the readings of the day with references to the Catechism/Catholic documents or works of the Saints. Thank God for our priests! Thank God for the parish of st. Isaac Jogues and long may she continue to be in existence.
