ABOUT
OUR CHURCH
A bit of History as taken from a
letter to our church from
Most Rev. Frank J. Rodimer Bishop of Paterson. May 1993
for our seventy-fifth anniversary.
...The parish has been a
home away from home to the immigrants
from Poland who have continued to flow into our area. They
looked
for the opportunities offered by our nation but wanted to
preserve and
foster the faith handed down to them in their homeland. They
needed
a place where they could
worship and hear the Word of God in their
own language and in a way that respected their culture. They
made
great sacrifices to build a house of God and continue to make
them
to maintain it . It is their home, but His first!
The priests, religious and laity who have worked and
prayed together
in Holy Rosary Parish for three quarters of a century have made
it a
strong of believers in the love of God made manifest by sending
His
Devine Son to be our Savior. They have unceasingly demonstrated
their faith in this mystery through the celebratin of the
Eucharist.
Jesus lives in their hearts through the sacraments, and that is
what
makes Holy Rosary Important, not only to its members but to the
entire diocese. That is a gift for which I am especially
grateful.
