Annual Silent Night Service
St. Joachim’s Comfort in Grief Ministry cordially invites you to our Annual Silent Night Service Thursday,
December 15, 2022 at 7:00 PM in St. Joachim Parish Hall. The holidays may be a difficult time for those who have lost a loved one. In the spirit of hope and healing, please join us for a quiet hour of sharing, reflection and prayer. A meaningful evening has been prepared for you. Comfort and strengthen one another as you share memories and tips for coping during this sometimes overwhelming season. Journey with fellow parishioners and the Christ Child. Please leave a message for Barbara McCarty at 856-931-8843 with your name and the number attending, so we may have sufficient materials available. Light refreshments will be served.
Giving Tree
The Christmas season is soon approaching and in the past, we have had the Christmas giving tree to help the less
fortunate in our Parish by picking off gift ideas from the tree. This year again, due to the pandemic, we have to change our procedure . We will not have the giving tree in the vestibule of the Church as in previous years. Instead, we will be collecting gift cards for Shop-rite, Aldi or Walmart ( minimum of $25 each) making sure that the cards will be given to those Parishioners who are in need. The last date to accept gift cards will be December 19th. If you would like to donate, please place gift cards in an envelope marked “Giving Tree” in the collection basket or bring your donation to the office.
House of Charity Bishop's Annual Appeal
Will be called:
South Jersey Catholic Ministries Appeal
The Annual Appeal will carry on as it has, but now with a new name, a new logo, and a new color scheme. The change was made to give better clarity in the name. The new name references both our region and the supported ministries as its scope and purpose. The Annual Appeal will continue to run as it has with an In-pew Solicitation Weekend and a series of mailings, relying on parish staff and volunteers to organize and mail gifts to the Development Office. While the name, logos, and colors of the Annual Appeal are changing, the mission Remains the same. Every dollar donated to the South Jersey Catholic Ministries Appeal will go to the ministries themselves and cannot be used for other purposes. The Annual Appeal will continue to be managed by the dedicated team in the Office of Development and carried out by the faithful pastors and volunteer teams of the parishes.
