Our Lady of Ostrabrama stands majestically on Depot Lane in Cutchogue and is a testament to a small group of Polish immigrants who came to the Cutchogue area in the early 1900’s. In 1908, they created a society in honor of St.Josaphat. It's purpose was to organize and support the immigrants in their efforts to receive permission to have Polish chapel which would serve their needs in the only language they understood, Polish. In 1912, after considerable discussion, the chapel was moved from it's original location on the Main Road in Cutchogue across farm fields to Depot Lane. However, in 1918, it was destroyed by a fire. The cornerstone for the present church building was dedicated in October, 1919. We continue to embrace the Polish heritage of our original members and have happily welcomed new members from many backgrounds to form a new family in Christ.

Sacred Heart Cemetery Decorations

Catholic Cemeteries of Long Island's cemetery staff will be completing a full cleanup of decorations at our cemeteries. In addition to removing all Christmas decorations, cemetery staff will remove and discard any items from gravesites that are not permitted per the cemetery's rules and regulations. Due to the volume of items being removed during the cleanup, it is not possible to make arrangements to have families claim items once they have been removed. Families are requested to remove any placed items that they wish to save. We kindly ask that families refrain from placing any prohibited items back on graves after the cleanup is completed. The cemetery's rules and regulations play an important part in the beautification and preservation of the sacred resting place of the faithful departed. They are intended not as restraining, but rather as defining an orderly plan of operation, care, and permanent maintenance. Please visit Catholic Cemeteries Long Island website for more information on Planting & Decoration guidelines, overview of cemetery rules and regulations and decoration placement schedule. They can also be contacted at info@cclongisland.org
