Communications Ministry 5/21 Meeting

Our St. Peter’s Communications Ministry serves our parish through spreading awareness of what’s happening in our faith community and building connections and spiritual support beyond the Mass. This small team of volunteers runs our Facebook and Instagram pages, website, bulletin, and media screen. Your talents and passions are needed — selecting scripture quotes, designing graphics, writing prayers, editing videos, researching saints, photographing events, and more.

New and returning faces are always welcome to join our monthly meeting in the Parish Center at 7:30pm.

Questions? Please contact Liz Rutz at communications@saint-peter.org.

Archdiocesan Disciple Maker Index Survey Period

Archdiocesan Disciple Maker Index Survey Period

Your voice matters. Shape the future of St. Peter’s.

St. Peters’ future is evolving alongside the other 211 parishes within the Archdiocese of Newark. Cardinal Tobin’s We Are His Witnesses letter outlines new pathways for the future of our Archdiocese, which involves examining how parishes might best consolidate and share their resources for a vibrant future.

Our commitment to Christ’s vision for missionary discipleship is the lifeline for our parish to thrive and grow in faith together. With that, the first step of this process invites you to take the Disciple Maker Index (DMI) survey — an important tool that lets you reflect on your faith journey at St. Peter’s and provide feedback on our parish. Your input will help our leaders assess parish health and identify strengths, weaknesses and opportunities for the future. We are counting on your participation!

Please take the DMI survey here beginning Saturday, April 26, 2025. If you prefer a paper copy, you may request and return one at the Rectory or at the Welcome Desk after Sunday Masses. 

This year, we’ll be using this DMI survey in lieu of our own annual parish feedback survey. Last year, our survey resulted in actionable changes such as creating more ongoing faith formation opportunities for adults, including mini retreats and Bible study groups. We look forward to reviewing your DMI survey responses and sharing results in the coming months.

We are blessed by this St. Peter’s community and appreciate your participation as we strive to grow in missionary discipleship. Your voice matters as we grow together in faith. Thank you, and please pray for this intention and for the growth and protection of our parish.

Ushers Ministry Info Sessions

“Hospitality is not to change people, but to offer them space where change can take place.”
— Henri J.M. Nouwen

Are you being called to minister in hospitality?

Our Ushers Ministry is being revamped with expanded and more focused roles for these dedicated men and women. Ushers play a vital part in the Mass experience by offering a warm welcome to all who enter God’s house, assisting parishioners in need, and providing leadership and security during events. Both current ushers and any parishioners interested in serving are invited to attend an info session with Father AJ. Please choose one of the following options :

  • Saturday, November 23rd after the 5pm Mass OR

  • Sunday, November 24th after the 10am Mass

“For a day in your courts is better than a thousand elsewhere. I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God than dwell in the tents of wickedness.”
