Dear Brothers, Family, and Friends,
|
I hope you all had a wonderful and safe Christmas! As today marks the first day of 2022, I pray for a blessed, healthy, and prosperous New Year for all of you.
|
We are presented with similar challenges at the start of this year as in 2021. Cases rising, low attendance at Church and decreasing active membership. However, there is a lot to celebrate as well! We had a successful fundraiser through the pasta dinner, food-drive and weekly food collection for the Somerset County Foodbank Network, and coat and blood drives.
|
There is still a lot of low-hanging fruit in terms of membership and overall opportunities for our Council. For the first quarter of the year, we are planning a membership drive and in a collaborative effort with the CCW to start planning a fundraiser for our Parish.
|
I believe the future is bright and look forward to many accomplishments with your support!
|
|

Daily at 9:00 AM and 12:10, and Weekend Masses on Sat at 4 PM and Sun at 7:30 and 10:00 AM and 12:00 Noon
