Join us for a NEW Lenten parish program: “Water, Light, and Life” from Liturgical Training Publications, the same people who prepare our yearly Lector Workbooks, and so many other great resources for training and forming parish ministries. This program takes an in-depth look at the gospels of the first 4 Sundays of Lent and helps us see what these gospels say to us, particularly during this special season of prayer, fasting, and almsgiving.

We make and send Rosaries to the missions and hospitals at home and abroad. Now is the time to turn to Our Lady for all our needs. Making Rosaries is easy to learn, inexpensive and very fulfilling. Once you learn, you can make them in the comfort of your own home. You may drop off the completed Rosaries on the table outside the parish offices. We will meet on the second Tuesday of each month at 10:30 am through May. If you are interested, please contact Theresa Carson at 732-424-8064. *Next Meeting is Febuary 14th*
