Lighting Hearts on Fire Diocesan Consecration
Dec 12, 2019
Lighting Hearts on Fire is a campaign of spiritual renewal within the Diocese of Metuchen that seeks to bring about a renewed zeal for evangelization among the faithful. All youth, families, and people of faith are invited to participate in the walking pilgrimage in beautiful Hunterdon County.
Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament
We need committed adorers, people willing to sign-up for a particular hour of Eucharistic Adoration each week.
Candles in the Narthex
Please keep in mind that when lighting a candle in the Narthex there is a suggested donation of $5.00. This allows us to purchase the candles and have them available for the parishioners to light them.
Christmas Giving Tree
Each year so many of you generously provide gift cards from our Giving Tree in the Narthex for people St Magdalen’s serve through the Hope House. These gift cards allow families to provide gifts of necessity and joy at Christmas.
We ask that all gift cards are returned by Sun, Dec 20 So that we may make baskets for the families and distribute them ahead of Christmas.
Construction has Begun on Our New Adoration Chapel
We will be moving our Adoration Chapel to a new location in the space formally known as the St. John Paul II Room off the Narthex.
It’s Not Too Late… To Fill Out a Card with Your Gifts!
Stewardship Talent Cards can be returned to the Blue Box near the Giving Tree, in the weekly collection basket, to the Church office, or emailed to StMagStewardship@gmail.com.

Knights of Columbus Christmas Tree Memorialization
This year, once again St. Magdalen’s will celebrate the Christmas season by illuminating the front of our parish by erecting beautiful, six-foot, real cut Christmas trees, decorated with white lights. Each tree will be available to be memorialized for someone living, deceased, or with a Christmas greeting.
