Jubilee Prayer of St. Paul

O St. Paul, during this special jubilee year, may I be more like you each day. May I be an apostle of Christ and sacrifice for Him, like you. May I be a witness of Christ. O St. Paul, your life holds a lesson for all modern Christians. I must pay personally for my faith in Christ, in every situation. I must be committed to Christ, so your gospel will be stronger. I must live and work for Christ each day.

Got Food Sunday?

The last weekend of every month is "Got Food Sunday?" at St. Paul's Parish. Parishioners are encouraged to bring in donations of non-perishable food items and place them in the receptacles at the St. Mary Shrine in the Church's sanctuary. All of our donations are given to the Blackstone-Millville Food Pantry for distribution.
"Got Food Sunday?" is an integral part of our Parish's commitment to perform the works of mercy and to reach out to our local needy. We firmly believe the words of Jesus who said: "Whatsoever you do for the least of mine, you do for Me." (Matthew 25:40)

Children's Liturgy

Every Sunday at the 8:30am mass, Children are invited to join a Catechist in the chapel for the Liturgy of the Word. They talk about the readings and what they mean for people their age. We are also looking for more volunteers to help with this program. If you are interested in helping, please contact the rectory.
