Saint Simon the Apostle

This weekend we welcome all our families involved in the religious education as we start a new year. It is great to have everyone
back on campus with in-person classes. We are all excited to start!

As you know we started the Diocesan Ministry Appeal last week, our goal is $6,000. The appeal supports the work of the diocese
to the needy, the elderly priests, the seminarians and our catholic schools. Visit our Parish Links page to view a series of 2-minute videos highlighting individual case elements of 2021 DMA.

The pews will be removed from the church on Sunday, October 24 after the 11:30am Mass. We could use some volunteers to help with the removal of the kneelers and the rug, please call or email the rectory. You have the opportunity to memorialize a pew for $700 or you can contribute to the spindle fund. We hope to do some work on the ramp. Please consider a donation to the fund.

Volunteers are still needed for collection counters, lectors, choir members, ushers and hospitality; please consider one of these. 
 
We need to realize that the parish is a community of people of all ages and talents so please step up to serve. Email SaintSimon@optonline.net or call the rectory office at (973) 697-4699.
