Statement of Most Rev. James F. Checchio, JCD, MBA, Bishop of Metuchen,
on the passing of Pope Francis:With heavy hearts the Diocese of Metuchen mourns the passing of His Holiness, Pope Francis. From the moment of his election as Supreme Pontiff when he took the name Francis, our Holy Father has emphasized the mercy of God, embracing in his Petrine ministry the poor, the migrant, the marginalized and all those broken by this world’s problems and concerns. We entrust his noble soul to the hands of our Blessed Mother to accompany him to our Father's house. In this Jubilee year in which Pope Francis called us to be Pilgrims of Hope, he has now made the ultimate pilgrimage to the embrace of our loving God. -

Dear Friends,
As previously announced, the subcommittee formed from our Pastoral Council has completed their study of our Sunday Mass Schedule/Attendance. This study was conducted from October - January. The subcommittee made the recommendation to move from six weekend Masses to five. I would like to thank the subcommittee for working so diligently on this study and identifying a schedule that causes the least disruption to our Mass schedule.
Bishop Checchio has approved the following weekend Mass schedule beginning June 1, 2025:
4:00 p.m. Vigil, 7:30 a.m., 9:00 a.m., 10:30 a.m., Noon (Spanish)

Come, let us adore Him!"When in adoration, we look at the Consecrated Host, the sign of creation speaks to us. And so, we encounter the greatness of his gift; but we also encounter the Passion, the Cross of Jesus, and his Resurrection. Through this gaze of adoration, he draws us toward himself, within his mystery, through which he wants to transform us as he transformed the Host." - Pope Benedict XVI

Eucharistic AdorationWe are blessed here at St. Magdalen de Pazzi Church to have a Chapel dedicated to the Most Blessed Sacrament. Here, the Blessed Sacrament is exposed for all to adore during normal operating hours of the Church. After hours, committed adorers, who register for an hour of adoration, are given the code to the exterior Chapel door. If you feel called to be a committed adorer, someone who regularly comes to pray for an hour, I ask you to sign-up by clicking the monstrance to your left.
