Grieving the death of a child is not something that suddenly ends, and not a journey you need to face alone. The Support Group for Parents Grieving the Death of a Child meets on the third Monday of each month from 7:30-9pm in the church rectory. Parents are welcome regardless of how long ago the loss was, or what age the child was. There’s no preregistration and no fee.

Please call Mary Davis with any questions: (201) 280-9881

The Church Rectory is the building next door to the front entrance of St. Peter’s: 445 Fifth Avenue, River Edge, NJ 07661

On Saturday morning, March 14th, St. Peter the Apostle Parish will celebrate a communal Anointing of the Sick during Mass at 11:00 AM.

This sacrament may be received more than once and is for any person who has become ill and is in danger of subsequent sickness. We especially encourage anyone facing major surgery, a serious illness, or anyone who has been afflicted for a long time is invited to receive the sacrament.

Immediately following the Mass, lunch will be served in the Parish Center. We sincerely hope that you can join us.

Please call the rectory at 201-261-3366 or email Chris Black at cblack@saint-peter.org and let us know if you wish to be anointed at the communal Anointing of the Sick and if you plan to attend the luncheon.

God is close to us in our suffering, sustaining us through the gift of each other. The support of those who know what you are going through is one of God’s many gifts of love. Seasons of Hope is a 6-week faith-based support group for those grieving the loss of a loved one. A new 6-week session will be held from 7:30 pm to 9:00 pm on Tuesday evenings, March 10, 17, 24, 31, April 7 and 14, 2026.

Join us for Daily Mass at 9:00 AM on the Feast of St. Blaise, Tuesday, February 3, 2026, with the traditional Blessing of Throats. We invite all parishioners to come and receive this special blessing, asking God’s protection for our health and well-being.

St. Blaise was a bishop and martyr of the early Church, remembered especially for his care for the sick. According to tradition, he healed a child who was choking, which led to the custom of blessing throats on his feast day. Through the intercession of St. Blaise, the Church prays for healing and for protection from illnesses of the throat and body, trusting in God’s loving care.

All Souls’ Mass of Remembrance — November 1, 2025

Our Catholic tradition is rich in its belief that our loved ones who have died are not removed from our care. By prayer we accompany them and assist them in their final journey to the Kingdom of God. On All Souls’ Day, we remember all those who have died.

On Saturday, November 1st, at 5:00pm, a Mass will be celebrated to remember our deceased family and friends. In a candle-lighting ceremony, the names of all the deceased who have had funerals in the parish in the last year will be remembered.

If you had a family member die in the last year who was not buried from St. Peter’s and you will be present for the Mass, please email the name to cblack@saint-peter.org or call the rectory at 201-261-3366 by Thursday, October 23rd. Your loved one’s name will be read and someone in your family will receive a candle in remembrance.

The Book of the Names of the Dead

Located near the Baptismal Font you will find The Book of the Names of the Dead which already contains the names of those who have died and were buried from St. Peter’s. We invite you to enter the names of your deceased loved ones who will be prayed for during the month of November, the month of All Souls.
