A warm welcome is extended to all who come to St. Mary’s-Stony Hill Church, joining us in this community of worship and praise to Almighty God. We are grateful to our faithful parishioners and welcome our neighbors and guests who visit us occasionally. We want you to know that you are always welcome!
Welcome to our new parish website! Since late November, we have updated the Parish Bulletin and now have updated our Parish Website. We hope you like the new look of these new parish communication tools!! Stay tuned for more improvements!
In the meantime, we would love to get your feedback on our new bulletin and website. Please see the brief questionnaire to the left.
St. Mary’s-Stony Hill is a Roman Catholic parish that is rooted in our sacramental life and the vast traditions of the Catholic Church. First and foremost, our parish life centers on the Sunday celebration of the Eucharist. The grace received from Eucharist enables us to function in our mission as a parish community. Our mission as a parish encompasses parishioners of all ages.
We strive to be a place where our parishioners feel a sense of welcome and a place to have their faith nurtured through the various ministerial opportunities that occur throughout the year.
Dear Parishioners,
On behalf of the parish of St. Mary’s-Stony Hill, I wish to warmly welcome you to our parish.
We are blessed in so many ways as a parish. Our parish setting is
absolutely beautiful, sitting on a mountain in the midst of twenty-six acres of woodlands. Our parish church, modeled after a tee-pee, is warm and lends itself to a spirit of prayer and reverence with its simple décor and bold stained glass windows that surround the praying assembly.
The parish has much to offer and you are free to choose to enter into as much parish activity as your life commitments allow. I strongly encourage you to take the time to review this website so that you may become familiar with all that our community offers. If you have any questions or wish to speak to me privately, please call me at (908) 756-6524 x 12.
As the pastor of this worshipping community, it is my hope that you find yourself a spiritual home at St. Mary’s-Stony Hill and utilize the resources that we have to help you in your spiritual journey.
With every good wish and the peace of Christ,
Rev. Msgr. William Benwell
