As stated in this year’s Diocesan Ministries Appeal theme, “Three Counties, One Family of Faith,” the impact of the Appeal can be felt in every corner of our Diocese. For instance, the Appeal helps support the following ministries and programs in Morris County:
Group residences for adults with disabilities in Parsippany, Oak Ridge and Succasunna;
Fix-It and Chore programs for low income homebound seniors and disabled veterans;
Homelessness Prevention Program;
Nazareth Village residence for diocesan senior priests, Chester; Mary’s Hands family assistance center and ESL classes, Morristown;
Services for veterans and their families; Assistance for people with HIV/ AIDS; Food pantry, Dover; Gruenert Center Day Habilitation program for adults with disabilities, Lake Hopatcong; treatment services for individuals struggling with addiction; Catholic Religious Education for Adults with Disabilities, Oak Ridge.
When you give to the Diocesan Ministries Appeal, your generosity is felt locally. You help your neighbor, your friend, perhaps a loved one. It’s good to know that all gifts to the Diocesan Ministries Appeal are used only for the causes described in the Appeal materials and for no other purpose. DonateLearn More

Children’s Liturgy of the Word
Sundays, October 26th during the 9:30 am Masses
Children’s Liturgy of the Word is held during the 9:30 a.m. Mass on most second and fourth Sundays of the month. Children’s Liturgy of the Word is open to children from preschool through 6th grade. We will invite the children to process into the Chapel after the opening prayer for a special age-appropriate liturgy and reflection. The children will rejoin the congregation after the homily.
No registration is required.
We are looking for teen volunteers (grades 7-12) to help with the program.
