Carmel 7:45 PM Dear Parishioners, As you are most likely aware, the Archdiocesan New Energies project was calling the Catholic Churches of Bayonne to consolidate in order to more efficiently use resources and to cut expenses. Since the untimely passing in January of Fr. Jerry Lombardo, the Pastor of SS. Michael/Joseph Church, I have been serving as the Administrator of that Parish. The linking of the two parishes was one of the recommendations being made by the Bayonne Pastors and the New Energies teams from the Bayonne parishes. Although this has not yet been approved by the Archbishop, it is almost certain the OLMC and SS Michael/Joseph parishes will continue to be linked. ( Linked means that each parish exists as an individual entity but there is one Pastoral Team ( Priests and staff) serving both.) This is similar to the structure now existing at St. Andrew and St. Mary, Star of the Sea parishes. Presently, as you can imagine, the priests have been under increased pressure covering all the Masses, devotions, Hospital duty days, sick calls and parish activities. We ask your patience as we streamline some of these activities. We have been receiving some additional help from the Jesuits at St. Peter s University. We are grateful to them. The Church is never stagnant but is forever renewing itself to respond to the pastoral needs of the faithful. The church in Bayonne is changing with the increase of new ethnic groups and new ministerial challenges. God Alone is Constant. He will be with us as we grow in new ways. Msgr. Ron The Lenten season is the traditional time to pay Parish Dues. In order to make it easier, the Parish Secretary is available this weekend before and after the Masses in the main entrance of the church to collect Parish Dues. You may also send your dues book through the mail to the rectory or make a personal visit to the rectory during regular office hours. (Dues remain at: $ 15 for a family, $10 for an individual, and $5 for Seniors (65+) & Young Adults (19-25).) Not Registered with Us Yet? No Problem! You may register in church this weekend.

Jak jest zapewne wszystkim wiadomo, archidiecezjalny program Nowe energie wzywał parafie katolickie w Bayonne do połączenia się, w celu bardziej efektywnego wykorzystania zasobów i obniżenia kosztów utrzymania. Od dnia nagłej śmierci ks. Gerarda Lombardo, jestem administratorem parafii św. Michała/św. Józefa. Połączenie naszej parafii z parafią parafii św. Michała/św. Józefa było jednym z rozwiązań proponowanych przez Archidiecezję, miejscowych duszpasterzy i parafian. Chociaż to rozwiązanie nie zostało jeszcze zaakceptowane przez Arcybiskupa, jest niemal pewne, że takie rozwiązanie zostanie przyjęte przez Archidiecezję. Połączenie oznacza, że każda parafia istnieje jako samodzielny podmiot, ale jest jeden zespół duszpasterski (księża i obsługa). Taka struktura istnieje obecnie w parafiach Matki Bożej Gwiazdy Morza i św. Andrzeja. Obecnie, jak zapewne możecie sobie to wyobrazić, księża naszej parafii byli zobowiązani również wypełnić zobowiązania w parafii św. Michała/ św. Józefa, takie jak: Msze święte, nabożeństwa, pogrzeby, wezwania do szpitala. Usiłujemy usprawnić niektóre z tych działań, dlatego prosimy o cierpliwość. W naszej trosce wspierają nas Jezuici z Jersey City, którym jesteśmy za tę pomoc wdzięczni. Kościół nigdy nie jest statyczny, ale ciągle rozwija się, aby odpowiedzieć na potrzeby duszpasterskie wiernych. Struktura Kościoła w Bayonne zmienia się wraz z napływem nowych grup etnicznych, które wymagają nowego modelu duszpasterskiego. Tylko Bóg jest stały. On będzie z nami, gdy będziemy rozwijać się w nowy sposób. Prałat Ronald Marczewski, proboszcz REJESTRACJA PARAFIALNA Okres Wielkiego Postu jest tradycyjnym czasem regulowania opłat parafialnych. Opłatę parafialną będzie można uregulować w sobotę i niedzielę, 28 lutego i 1 marca przed i po Mszach świętych przy głównym wyjściu z kościoła. Można to również odwiedzając kancelarię parafialną. Roczna składka wynosi: rodzina: $15.00 osoba stanu wolnego: $10.00 seniorzy (65+), młodzi ludzie (18-25): $5.00
