Essex Catholic Community will launch our local campaign on the weekend of August 22-23. Donations will support our Synod Priorities of Building a Vibrant Parish, Evangelization, and Communications. Appeal letters will be sent to parishioners late August- Early September. Parishioners volunteering to support the campaign will reach out to parishioners to answer their questions as they discern how they might contribute to this campaign to support our parish, Catholic Charities and diocesan-wide faith formation. If you have any questions, contact Father Ranges or Campaign Chair Katharin Brink at ecc.engage@gmail.com.
Experience a life-changing spiritual weekend of sacramental renewal, fellowship, and faith-sharing. Go to LOTWEM.org to learn more about these amazing Retreats!

Join us for Mass to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the passing of Msgr. Thomas Ball, a long time rector of The Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception Church in downtown Burlington. Mass will be celebrated at 8:00 am in the main church at St. Joseph Cathedral in Burlington. The Knights of Columbus honor guard will be present along with Celia Asbel as Music Director.
The Sacraments are at the center of the our worship. They are essential to God’s plan, but what are they? Why are they important? Who gives them to us? Where are they in Scripture? And how do we live them out? Join Seminarian Greg Caldwell to think about and reflect upon the Seven Sacraments. To get the Zoom information email Greg Caldwell at gcaldwell@saintmeinrad.edu.
