In furtherance of Pope Francis' call for a critical examination of the Church and sincere engagement with those who've left the church, feel unwelcome, or who feel that the faith of their youth no longer feels relevant today -- OLG will be holding a series of "listening sessions" where we seek unfiltered, honest feedback from the community. The first session will be held in Jersey City on December 15th from 6-9pm, and will be hosted by OLG parishioner Noreen Collins.

As an added inducement to participate, Ms. Collins will be opening the 12/15 event with a holiday wine tasting, featuring 3-4 wonderful wine options to serve at your table, or give as gifts. The effervescent Ms. Collins is a true believer in the power of wine to bring people together, and looks forward to making it a memorable, meaningful, and enjoyable evening for all.

As capacity is limited to approximately 60 people, those interested in attending must email an RSVP to This email address is being protected from spambots.

The 2022 Mass books open soon for in-person reservations:  On Sunday, November 7, from 11 to Noon in the St. Joseph Church Hall where Masses are held until the church is finished. At OLG on Tuesday, November 9, beginning at 10 AM at the Parish Center.

You may also complete and mail in or drop off the sheet in the bulletin and those Masses will be entered the following day on a first-received basis. It is customary to reserve Mass intentions, which are printed in the bulletin and announced at Mass. You may reserve Masses for the deceased and also for living intentions like a birthday or wedding anniversary. If you plan to notify someone about the intention, we have Mass cards for living and deceased.

We welcome any adult who needs to complete the Sacraments of Communion or Confirmation as well as any adult who would like to become Catholic to contact Fr. Phil at 201-659-0369.  Formation sessions are underway, so please don't delay!

Tickets for the parish's bimonthly raffle are available after Mass. The next winner will be drawn on December 27.  You may take some tickets home to sell to family, neighbors and co-workers. Or contact Socorro Martinez at the Parish Center (201-659-0369), and she will mail them to you.  Thank you for your support!
