In Memoriam: Reverend Monsignor Joseph Potter
Dear Parish Family, It is with deep sadness that we share the news of the death of Reverend Monsignor Joseph Potter on December 12, 2025. Born in Bridgeport in 1928 and ordained in 1954, Monsignor Potter dedicated his entire priesthood to faithful service within the Diocese of Bridgeport and in missionary ministry in Brazil. A significant part of his ministry was spent here among us: he served as Pastor of Saint Charles Borromeo Church for many years, generously offering his wisdom, compassion, and leadership to our parish community. His pastoral guidance left a lasting legacy that continues to be felt today. Monsignor Potter will be laid to rest in Brazil on December 13th. We will gather as a parish community to honor his life at a Memorial Mass on Saturday, January 10, 2026 at 11:00 AM at Saint Charles Borromeo Church. A second Memorial Mass will be celebrated at the request of the family on June 27, 2026 at 10:00 AM, also at Saint Charles. The Most Reverend Frank J. Caggiano, Bishop of our Diocese, will be the main celebrant for both Masses. We give thanks to God for the life and ministry of Monsignor Potter. May the Lord grant him eternal rest, and may the consolation of Christ be with all who mourn his passing. Fraternally in Christ, Father Abelardo Pastor
