Falmouth Catholic Parishes Uniting Into 1 Parish
Parish officials say the unification will help with priest shortages and strengthen the Catholic community in Falmouth.

Jimmy Bentley has called Massachusetts home his entire life and embraces everything it means to be from New England. Whether that's shoveling snow, high school hockey practices before 4 a.m., or getting a South Shore signature bar style pizza, Jimmy's done it all and is proud of where he's from. Jimmy wants to take that pride for his community and use it to write stories that maybe make you proud too.
