Our Deacons

Deacon George A. Mais, Jr.

I was born in Brooklyn, NY on May 4th, 1943 and moved to North Bellmore, NY in 1952 with my mother, father, and sister.  Our family grew after that to include two more sisters and a brother.

I met my future spouse through my sister, who when to the same all girls high school.  After serving in the Army during the Vietnam war, I married the love of my life on August 19, 1967.  We resided in Westbury, NY and attended St. Brigid parish.  Our first two daughters, Kathleen and Christine were born there.

We moved to Levittown in the fall of 1971 where the remainder of our family was born (Marie, Michelle, Joseph, Theresa, and Jennifer).  We joined St. Ignatius parish at that time.

Over the years we have assisted this beautiful parish in various ministries.  My wife, Mickey, has assisted in the religious education program for over 30 years at various levels.  I assisted with the 6th, 76th, and 8th levels in Confirmation preparation.  Mickey and I were Pre-Cana facilitators and later became trainers for other facilitators; I became the coordinator.

I have been a Eucharistic Minister of Holy Communion, assisted with the homebound on Sundays, and a Lector.
​

I was Ordained Deacon – May 2007 and have served here at St. Ignatius Loyola since.
