STRESS IN MARRIAGE

• Do you feel lost, alone or bored in your marriage?

• Are you frustrated, hurt or angry with your spouse?
• Are you constantly fighting?  Or, do you simply shut down?
• Have you thought about separation or divorce?
• Does talking about it only make it worse?

Please click here to review  a broad pastoral plan of the Archdiocese of Newark that seeks to establish a foundation for healing, to help alleviate the hurt and mistrust within our community, to reinforce the changes that have begun to be implemented, and to provide a firm foundation for our missionary lives. FORWARD IN FAITH TOGETHER seeks to ensure that we will thrive as a community of missionary disciples, companions of our Risen Lord.

Ever wonder how some people become enthusiastic and on fire about their relationship with God? In this 6 six-session video presentation, Fr. Albert Haase, OFM gives you the tools and kindling to prepare for the spark of God in your life – and then shows you how to fan it into flame until you are set ablaze. His teaching glows with time-tested wisdom as an experienced spiritual director sharing the secrets of the saints. Feel cold? Or maybe just smoldering? With supplemental reading suggestions and reflection questions, this eminently practical video functions like a personal, spiritual retreat.

Dear Sisters and Brothers:

I invite you to please click HERE and review the extensive material, including a communication from Cardinal Tobin, that exhibits the transparency that I pray will contribute to healing that many of our sisters and brothers desire. Also on this website you will appreciate, as I do, the "FAQ" that we are all asking at this time. Should you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me. Peace & Blessings, Fr. Leo

“Serving God's People"

As missionary disciples, we seek to answer the Lord's call each day. Christian stewardship is one way we can respond to the Lord's call, as well as, assist our local Church in serving those entrusted to her physical and spiritual care. Through the Sharing God’s Blessings Annual Appeal, the Catholic community of the Archdiocese of Newark comes together in support of ministries and programs which provide social, educational, and spiritual support throughout Essex, Bergen, Hudson, and Union counties.

We hope you will join us again in support of this important effort.

Peace & Blessing, Fr. Leo
