The traditional devotion to the Blessed Sacrament is known as Eucharistic Adoration.  In recent years, fewer and fewer parishioners are availing themselves of this blessed opportunity to draw closer to our Lord Jesus through Adoration. 

Adoration begins after the 8:15am Mass on the First Friday of the month and continues throughout the day, ending with Benediction at 5pm.  It’s important that someone is always present in Adoration, which is why sign-ups are necessary. Sign-up books are on the table in the Chapel and in the narthex of the church.  However, if you cannot commit to a certain time, please consider stopping by the Chapel to spend some moments in prayer before Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament and if you can attend Benediction at 5pm.  For more info call Ann Wachter at 973-838-3348.

Father of goodness and love; hear our prayers for the sick members of our community and for all who are in need.  Amid mental and physical suffering may they find consolation in your healing presence.  Show your mercy as you close wounds, cure illness, make broken bodies whole and free deliverance, and so join us in thanking you for all your gifts.  We ask this through the lord Jesus who healed those who believed. Amen

CURRENT PARISH NEWS / in & around the parish

Bishop Sweeney, along with the other Bishops in New Jersey, officially welcomes you back to Mass! Today, we celebrate The Feast of Corpus Christi. What an appropriate time to restore our obligation to attend Mass on Sundays and Holy Days. This is a time to reflect on the true presence of Jesus in the Body and Blood of the Eucharist and respond to Jesus’ invitation, “Here is My Body, take and Eat…Do this in Memory of Me.”

My sisters and brothers, let us pray fervently for one another, that we may be the faithful disciples Jesus has called us to be, realizing that we are each members of the “One Body of Christ”. We are most fully His Body, when we gather, physically present to one another, around the table of the Lord, listening to His Word, united in prayer and receiving His Body and Blood in Holy Communion.

This obligation does not apply to those who are ill; those who have reason to believe that they were recently exposed to the coronavirus or another serious or contagious illness; those who are confined to their home, a hospital or nursing facility; or those with serious underlying health conditions.  One should consult the pastor if questions arise about the obligation to attend Mass. Liturgical directives (communion in the hand, communion under one species, etc.) in each New Jersey diocese remains in place until modified or revoked by the Diocesan Bishop.

·    Masks are no longer required if the person is vaccinated
·    The requirement to safe distance is eliminated
·    People not vaccinated are required to where a mask
·    Enforcement of masks is on the honor system
·    Masks will still be available in church
·    Occupancy restrictions are lifted
·    Communion will continue to be distributed only in the form of the host for the time being
