CELEBRATING THE YEAR FOR THE PRIEST

Saint John Vianney, pray for us!
 
 

LET US PRAY FOR THOSE IN NEED

If you, or someone you know, is in need of prayer, please contact the Rectory Office at (973) 376-3044 and we will add your request to our prayer list. Through the prayer of intercession, God will touch our hearts and bring us comfort, healing & peace. This may not always come in the form of what WE want, but will always come in the form of what WE need.

OUR FIRST CHURCH ON MORRIS AVENUE

Every once in a while, it's good to take a look back and see where we came from and remember our humble beginnings. Our first church building, now a bank, was built for the people of Springfield by the sweat of their brows and the generosity of their hearts. This simple, little church has grown from a handful of families to almost 1800 families. We thank God for our growth and especially for our birth.

OUR LADY OF GUADALUPE PRAY FOR US

In the Nave of our church, we have a Marian Shrine with a sculpture of Our Lady of Guadalupe, also known as, Our Lady of the Americas. We celebrate her life, along with that of Saint Juan Diego, who was the humble visionary who brought her message by way of roses. We thank God for the great gift of Mary, our Mother, who constantly guides and protects us on our earthly journey. Our Lady of the Americas, pray for us. Amen.
