WEEKLY E-EDITION

For a sponsorship form, please call the parish office 973-627-0313:

 All Catholic Churches in the United States require from Catholics serving as a Godparent for Baptism or a sponsor for Confirmation a certificate of eligibility. This document certifies that the Godparent/sponsor is a registered member of the parish, attends Holy Mass, approaches the sacraments regularly and contributes to the support of the Church via the Sunday offering envelope program or “Parish Pay”.  It is the responsibility of the individual to meet these requirements as listed in the Code of Canon Law, #874.
 
 

 Are you or someone you know in need of adult faith formation and sacrament preparation?  Are you interested in coming into the church as a fully initiated Catholic (Baptism, Eucharist, & Confirmation)?   If you or someone you know is searching and feeling called to enter more fully into the life of the church, please contact Jim Clancy in the parish office to discuss joining our RCIA program @ 973.627.0313 or StCecilia.FaithFormation@gmail.com.
