Dear Brothers and Sisters,
A day of great Joy has dawned for all Creation. Christ,
Our Lord, has Risen! Alleluia! May this Easter Day
bring a renewed sense of God’s love and mercy in your
life and the lives of all of our community. Blessings for
a very happy and joyful Easter.
In Christ,
Fr. Thomas

2019 Bishop’s Annual Appeal
Help Build a Civilization of Love
To date, 344 parishioners have pledged $105,954 and paid $95,679. These
generous pledges show great progress and put us at 61% of our parish goal of
$173,000.
Our other goal is for every family to participate. If you have not contributed
yet this year, we ask you to prayerfully consider donating to the Bishop's Appeal
funding over 25 diocesan and parish ministries that reach a half million
people. You can take a Bishop's Appeal envelope in the Church gathering
space and return it with your pledge or one-time gift in the collection basket.
The Diocese of Metuchen's home page, diometuchen.org, also describes
other ways to contribute including online and employer matching gifts.
Every gift, no matter the size, is important and greatly appreciated.

Having trouble hearing in Church?
 Hearing Assistance Devices are available in the rear of the Church.
The devices cannot be used outside the Church, as they are connected
to our Church public address system.
The hearing devices are used by many at daily
and Sunday Masses and other Liturgical Celebrations.
PLEASE be sure to return them to the box at the
back of the Church and also be certain to turn the
switch OFF before placing them back into the box.
