For the remainder of February, the prayer group will continue with our study of
Introduction to Prayer.
Beginning Ash Wednesday, March 5th, we’ll be guided by Bishop Robert Barron’s book of daily reflections on the Lenten Gospels. Books are available from Lee Maute for $5.00. Click for more details.
Join us in celebrating
National Marriage Week from February 7 to 14!
This year’s theme from the USCCB is Marriage: Source of Hope, Spring of Renewal, inviting couples to strengthen their bond and deepen their lifelong commitment to each other. The USCCB is offering resources for those discerning marriage, engaged couples, and those already living out the vocation of marriage. These include an at-home, week-long retreat and a marriage-centered Lectio Divina. Click for more information.

St. Catherine’s will be hosting a Diaconate Preaching Practicum on Saturday, February 22 at 10 am. Jim Gillespie, Tom Kimble, Stephen Deehan and Elmer Maximo will each be sharing a homily based on a set of Sunday readings. Volunteers are needed to provide feedback by completing an evaluation form and participating in a brief discussion after each homily. The session will last approximately 2 hours and light refreshments will be provided.
Come celebrate the end of the football season and warm up on a cold winter’s day with delicious chili, homemade by our parishioners. Whether you enter your signature chili in the contest or attend as a taster, it will be a fun day for all. Click for more details and to register.
On the third weekend of each month, we'll be collecting non-perishable food, disposable diapers in all sizes, and gently used luggage for Paterson's Catholic Charities for the Fr. English Food Pantry. Please place your donations on the parish hall stage. Many thanks for your generosity.
With gratitude to our parishioners, we acknowledge those who are remembered with Christmas flowers, wreaths, candles and lights.
Please keep them in your prayers.
Heartfelt thanks to everyone who volunteered and
contributed to our many social activities this fall and
holiday season. From the Mass of Remembrance
through the Ladies Ornament Exchange your
kindness and dedication is appreciated.
