Letter From the Archbishop

I am pleased to report to you on the continuing important work being accomplished throughout the Archdiocese of Newark with the New Energies Project.  I initiated the project in 2002 when I asked the Task Force on Parishes to study the needs and realities of the Archdiocese and to make recommendations regarding the future of parish structures according to a specific timetable.

Two years ago I spoke of the recommendations not being the final word, but rather the start of the conversation and response phase of the project.  I asked the 48 immediately involved parishes in the First Round to study the recommendations and to respond by accepting them or designing new possibilities which they thought more appropriate.  Now we also have recommendations and responses from more than 100 Second Round parishes in Cycles 1 and 2.  I am pleased that our parishes have both taken seriously the Task Force recommendations and been creative in suggesting new ideas or possibilities.

Rosary Altar Society
The Rosary Altar Society has been active at Our Lady of Lourdes ever since the parish was founded.  Grounded in devotion to Our Lady, the Society’s primary purpose is to promote awareness of the Rosary.

Sacraments

"The purpose of the sacraments is to sanctify men, to build up the Body of Christ and, finally, to give worship to God. Because they are signs they also instruct. They not only presuppose faith, but by words and objects they also nourish, strengthen, and express it."

Children's Liturgy of the Word by
Children’s Liturgy of the Word  is first and foremost a worship experience. This is a concerned and sensitive way to enable children to participate in the formal worship experience of the community. The celebrations of these liturgies are intended to form children in the liturgical language of the church, to nourish and guide their spiritual growth, and to immerse them in the Word in ways that are understandable to them.  Click here for Presiders Handbook.
