St. Mary's Bereavement Support Group Ministry will be starting our new sessions on Sundays for six weeks beginning November 7 and ending on December 12. If you are interested in joining us, please contact Deacon Tom and Kris Beirne at 973-366-5679 or Jeannie Hubley at 973-361-8621 to register no later than October 30. All calls are confidential.

You are invited to attend a Mass of Remembrance at St. Mary's on November 6 at 11:00 a.m. During the Mass, we will light a candle to honor the memory of those who passed into eternal life since November of 2020. All those who have suffered the loss of Loved Ones at any time are invited to attend. The Mass will be followed by a visit to St. Mary's Cemetery where there will be prayers and a blessing at the grave sites by Father Lem, Father Cerilo, Deacon Tom and Deacon Stu.

St. Mary’s will once again celebrate the Christmas season by illuminating our parish grounds with beautiful 6-7 foot Douglas Fir Christmas trees, decorated with white lights.
The cost to memorialize one of these beautiful trees is $200. Each tree will have a laminated dedication certificate containing your dedication, the names of those you wish to remember, or a Christmas greeting. You can complete the Christmas Tree Reservation Form and pay online by clicking on the picture.
You can also complete the form below or at back of the church and return to the Parish office with your payment via the drop box located by the front door.

Every Christian is called by virtual of our baptism to proclaim the good news.  Please consider recommending possible candidates for the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults.
The RCIA program is an opportunity for adults to learn more about the Catholic faith and to discern about becoming a Catholic. Additionally baptized Catholics who have not received all of their sacraments of initiation (Baptism, Eucharist, Confirmation) are welcome as well as any adults interested in reconnecting to the practice of their faith.
