🙏 Solemnity of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary

This Saturday, August 15, we celebrate the Solemnity of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary. 💙

Due to limited priest availability, there will be no additional Mass, and our regular weekend Mass schedule at all four Jersey County Catholic Parishes will remain the same.

May Mary, assumed body and soul into Heaven, continue to pray for us and lead us closer to her Son. 🙏💙

Every vocation begins with a simple "yes" to God's call.

This Sunday, our parish family has the opportunity to celebrate one of our own as Keaten Mansfield begins his journey to the seminary. We invite you to join us following the 10:15 a.m. Mass at St. Francis Xavier for a special send-off filled with prayer, encouragement, and fellowship.

Let's surround Keaten with our love and prayers as he takes this exciting step in faith. Donuts and refreshments will be served in the St. Francis School gym following Mass. We hope to see you there! 🙏❤️

WOW... our hearts are so full! 💙🙏
A HUGE thank you to all the families who shared their children with us this week, and to everyone who donated snacks, drinks, meals, supplies, volunteered, prayed, and gave their time to make Totus Tuus possible! Because of your support and willingness to invest in this incredible opportunity, our children were able to grow in their faith, build lasting friendships, and experience the joy of learning more about Jesus in such a fun and meaningful way.

Programs like Totus Tuus don't happen without an amazing parish community stepping up. It takes all of us, and your generosity makes this mission possible. The impact of this week reaches far beyond just a few days—it plants seeds of faith that can last a lifetime.

Thank you for investing in the faith of our children and helping make this week such a tremendous success. We are incredibly blessed to be part of such a generous, faith-filled community. We already can't wait for Totus Tuus next year! 💙⛪✨
