Deacon Steve will hold an Altar Server Training class on Thursday, December 6th, from 6 to 7 pm at the Parish Center. We are looking for boys and girls in third grade or higher to serve this very important role.

The Altar Server’s role is a unique one in the Catholic Church. Other than priests and deacons, no one else is allowed to so closely play a part in the preparation of the Eucharist. Your participation as an Altar Server is special. When you serve the priests and deacons, you serve the people of God, and above all, you serve Christ.

Please call the parish office at 908-735-4024 if you plan to attend the training.

The Rosary Society will be sharing the Giving Tree with various groups within our Church and Diocesan Community.

Gifts will be donated to The Friendship Center for New Beginnings in Flemington (the Center provides aid to single mothers), Life Choices (Phillipsburg), Family Promise, Trenton Area Soup Kitchen (CCD Class Project), and parishioners who are in need.

Please take a tag from the tree, purchase the gift, and tape the tag onto the package or envelope. This is our way to properly identify the gift and to know where the gift should be delivered. PLEASE DO NOT WRAP THE GIFT! Place gift certificates in an envelope and put them in the basket under the tree. This is a wonderful time to share our blessings with others who are in need.

The Giving Tree will be taken down on December 10th so all gifts must be brought in by Noon on December 10th. The gifts will be delivered to the various groups so that they receive them at an appropriate time. Thank you for supporting us with these projects!
