Church Renovation Update Excellent progress is being made on the church renovation! The contracted professionals involved with repairing the infamous crack between the original church and the 1957 addition has begun with removal of all material that is associated with that area. It promises to look great based on the engineering efforts to address this unsettling problem! Other areas within the church from front to back that have any signs of cracks, bulging plaster or water damage, are being meticulously addressed to beautify the church. Repairs to the walls and ceiling in the choir loft will also proceed. Remember, in preparation for this year s renovation, the roof was repaired, new ice stops installed (where needed) and new gutters replaced the original damaged gutters. This strategic remedy, begun a few years ago, was in preparation for this renovation. No further water damage has occurred since that time. If you wish to see some of the work being accomplished, go to www.stmarys-denville.org and click on the Church Renovation Updates area to review pictures of the interior as we make progress. We know you are curious, but for your safety, please do not attempt to enter the church at any time, entry places you in jeopardy, as well as construction workers that are repairing, plastering and painting. The main doors to the school auditorium are open if you wish to visit the sacrament during the day. An area in front of the auditorium has been set up for various drop-offs, such as Food Drive and Beta Club projects. Look for Update III next week! RCIA Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults is meant for those who: - have never been baptized but are curious about Christ and all He taught; - have been baptized in other Christian traditions, but have an interest in Catholics and the Catholic Church; - are already baptized Catholic but have never received Eucharist and/or Confirmation. These are the people the Rite of Christian Initiation seeks to reach and to serve. We are accepting enrollment for the 2017-18 session. The session starts in the Fall and candidates receive the sacraments at the Easter Vigil in March. Perhaps you know someone who may have questions about the faith, the process of RCIA, or a desire to be received into the Church. Think about it, pray about it, and offer an invitation. Anyone interested is asked to contact Andrea Henry, RCIA Coordinator at aphenryrcia@gmail.com or call 973-714-6844. Bereavement Seasons of Hope will begin again late- August 2017.
