We are happy to announce that a first installment of our parish rebate, from the Diocesan Ministries Appeal has come in. We receive one-half of all monies collected above our parish goal. The check sent to us for St. James was: $ 1043.00 and for St. Thomas was: $ 1401.50. Thank you for your pledges to the Annual Appeal. As you can see, it is helping us, too.

The nearby Sanctuary has been re-opened by the Vocationist Fathers of Florham Park, and Daily Mass is held 6PM; Confessions, Adoration, a Healing Mass are offered there and at times - Bible courses, retreats and days of recollection.

Both of our parishes received rebates from all donations contributed to the Partners In Faith Capital Drive. This is the fund-raising drive that has been conducted by the Diocese for the last five years. 25 % of all funds received from each parish would be returned for their own needs. Just last week, checks came in the mail: St. James received $547.50 and St. Thomas received $2,437.50. Thank you to all who have taken part in supporting this Campaign.
