The Challenge of Love

Today’s readings challenge us to love – love God and love our neighbor as ourselves. Do you know someone who would like to know more about our God who showers us love, Jesus, or the Catholic faith? Invite that person to call about an RCIA Inquiry Session. Participation in a session does not require a commitment to belong to the Catholic Faith Family. Anyone who is unbaptized, baptized into a non-Catholic Christian denomination, or baptized Catholic but never received First Eucharist and Confirmation, is invited to come and inquire about Jesus who tells us that a person’s basic worth is not derived from anything less than God’s unconditional love for all of his children and the Community of faith that can help us to understand the dignity inherent to that status. During the Pandemic the RCIA Inquiry sessions might be virtual. For more information, please reach out to our parish office.
RCIA
The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) is preparation and formation of all those who wish to become fully initiated members of the Catholic Faith Family.

If you are considering becoming a Catholic or if you are Catholic but have not received the Sacraments of Eucharist and/or Confirmation, we invite you to join our RCIA/Adult Faith Formation program. Please contact Anthony Pangi at 732-764-0264 or a.pangi@aol.com for more information about this program.

All who are not baptized, baptized into another faith denomination, or baptized Catholic but have not received Eucharist or Confirmation, are invited. Inquiry sessions are for those who wish to inquire, explore, and search for ways to grow in relationship with God.

Scripture Study
Periodic sessions are held throughout the year that offer opportunities to learn more about the history of the church and study scripture. Please check our website or read the church bulletin for events conducted by the parish.

Lenten Programs
During the Lenten season St. Mary’s sponsors various Lenten programs. Please check our website or read the church bulletin for events conducted by the parish or sponsored by the Diocese of Metuchen.
