Deeply committed to Jesus Christ, we endeavor to become a unified community of faith, worship, and service. We strive to be a warm, welcoming and caring parish in which the gifts and talents of all, young and old, are recognized and graciously used to nourish others.

Friends Feeding Families Food Drive
THIS WEEKEND November 17th & 18th
The Parish is assisting St. John Paul II Academy – Lower Mils in their efforts to stock the Catholic Charities Food Pantry to help our neighbors in need. Some of the items needed are Shaw and Stop and Shop Gift Cards, canned tuna, canned soup, canned fruits and vegetables, peanut butter, boxes of pasta, cereal, rice, baby food, oatmeal, crackers, mac and cheese, juice boxes, jars of tomato sauce, boxed stuffing, beans, canned chili/beef stew, canned spaghetti/ravioli. We will have boxes in the entrances of the Church this weekend.
All Souls Month
In November we set aside time to remember and pray for all of our loved ones who have gone to God. If you wish someone remembered please put their name on the envelope (doors of church) and place in the basket or drop off at the rectory. Please do not place money in envelope. The names will be placed on the altar.
Here's what Jesus never said:
"Feed the hungry only if they have papers." "Clothe the naked only if they're from your country." "Welcome the stranger only if there's zero risk." "Help the poor only if it's convenient." "Love your neighbor only if they look like you."
(James Martin, S.J.)
THANKSGIVING DAY MASS
Will be celebrated in the Lower Church at 6:45 AM on Thanksgiving Day. Wishing you all a happy and blessed Thanksgiving!
