For a sponsorship form, please call the parish office 973-627-0313:

 All Catholic Churches in the United States require from Catholics serving as a Godparent for Baptism or a sponsor for Confirmation a certificate of eligibility. This document certifies that the Godparent/sponsor is a registered member of the parish, attends Holy Mass, approaches the sacraments regularly and contributes to the support of the Church via the Sunday offering envelope program or “Parish Pay”.  It is the responsibility of the individual to meet these requirements as listed in the Code of Canon Law, #874.
 
 

 Have you been worshiping with us, but have never officially taken the step to become Catholic? Are you seeking a deeper personal relationship with Jesus, but have not been Baptized or Confirmed or have not received First Communion?  Are you married to a Catholic and attend Mass, but just don’t know what the next step is to become Catholic?  If any of the above questions apply to you, contact Deacon Paul Willson at 973-551-0749 and a leave a message or send an email to paul.d.willson@gmail.com.  (Whether you have contacted Deacon Paul or not, please come to our weekly RCIA meetings at either 9:00 am or 11:45 am every Sunday starting October 1st.)
