Pride in Our Priests @ The Grove | Cedar Grove | New Jersey | United States

VIVAT JESUS!

In conjunction with the schedule of His Eminence Cardinal Tobin and finding a venue where we can all meet comfortably, a solid date for the Archdiocesan PIP dinner is set for October 11, 2023, at “The Grove”, located in Cedar Grove, NJ.  Yes, this is a change of venue, but I fully expect a similar positive response from all of you!  It is Columbus Day so there is another reason to be proactive in securing a table that evening. 

It is a great honor to invite you, your local priests and Chaplains, and your council members to our Fifteenth Annual Pride in Our Priest Dinner.
Please join us on:

Date: Wednesday, October 11, 2023
Venue: The Grove
691 Pompton Ave.
Cedar Grove New Jersey 07009
Time: 6:00 PM – Cocktail Hour; 7:00PM – Dinner
Cost: $70.00 per person 

 

Please start planning now to join Cardinal Tobin, Bishops Cruz, Saporito, Studerus and Lorenzo, Flesey, and all our archdiocesan priests and the State Officers (who pay for the evening) at our dinner. As always, family and friends are certainly welcome. If there are any questions, please contact your county diocesan chairperson listed below. 

Vivat Jesus!
Fraternally,

This is the description of the program sponsored by the Knights of NJ:
 

Alzheimer’s Disease Awareness and Respite Care Support

Alzheimer’s disease is a progressive, degenerative, neurological disease that affects the brain and results in impaired memory, thinking, and behavior. Persons suffering from this devastating disease may require much supervision and assistance with daily living activities. It is not just those with the disease who suffer; the continual demand for care can create emotional and physical stress for caregivers. “Respite” (meaning a short period of rest or relief from something difficult) is for the care-giver, and “Care” is for the person with Alzheimer’s disease. This program is designed to help family caregivers learn about and experience the importance of respite care services.

The program provides families with supportive counseling and direct financial assistance to obtain some relief from the heavy demands of caring for someone 24 hours per day.

Families utilize the assistance for home health care, adult day care, and short-term residential respite.

Day of Reflection

You may have heard a little about Jubilee 2025.  

When we were in Portugal for World Youth Day, Pope Francis invited us to prepare for the great Jubilee Year of 2025 – Pilgrims of Hope. The flame of that call is still in us and in response, our parish, together with the Archdiocese, is preparing for this celebration.  

Our first event in this Year of Prayer, with the Archdiocesan Office for Evangelization, is to host the 2024 Eucharistic Rosary Congress on the Feast of the Holy Rosary, October 7th. See below to view the particulars and to sign up for all or part of the day. 

The day consists of Mass, Eucharistic Adoration with guided prayer, recitation of the Rosary throughout the day, and two talks. (conferences). You may attend all or part, and we would encourage you to invite family and friends from other parishes. Please sign up as it will help us determine the resources we need. 

The Morning talk explores the Rosary, a beloved practice in the Catholic faith. Discover its rich history and the spiritual virtues it represents. Learn how the Rosary has been a powerful tool for prayer, meditation, and growing closer to God. Join us to celebrate and deepen your understanding of this treasured tradition.  

In the Evening Talk – “Jubilee, Pilgrims of Hope” we will delve into the history and significance of the Jubilee Year, its spiritual implications, and how it serves as a beacon of hope for Christians. We will discuss how this special time encourages renewal, reflection, and a deeper connection with our faith.  

Continue to visit our website, app, and bulletin for the most up to date information regarding the Year of Prayer and the Jubilee Year and their events. Should you have any questions, contact us at the Parish Office.
