Travelling Chalice: To promote prayers for vocations among our parishioners and to ask the Lord to inspire young men from our parish to enter Priesthood, I warmly invite you, my Dear Parishioners and Friends of the Parish, to consider receiving an old chalice, hosting it for a week and at the time of its presence among you, saying a daily prayer for vocations. The prayer cards will accompany the chalice. You can ask for any week of your choice personally or via a phone call ( 732-257-0100 ). Fr. John
