We're all in this together

March issue of The Monitor Magazine
March 8, 2024 at 2:57 p.m.


During a recent discussion with the Diocese’s vocations director, Father Chris Colavito, he shared a key message that he delivers when speaking to parishes: “We’ve all got skin in the game.” I was struck by how aptly the simple colloquial expression described a very important reality of our faith.

It is the idea of unity that plays out across the pages of this magazine…

Here are but a few highlights of the content you will find in the March issue:


A DYNAMIC CHURCH . . . Bishop David M. O’Connell, C.M., shares his Easter message;  Coverage of the journey through which hundreds of individuals in the Diocese of Trenton are preparing this year to enter the Catholic Church; Reporting on a gatherings that drew throngs of Catholic men for talks and Mass with the Bishop and the celebration of 35 years of faith with the Catholic women of Zion; Synod listening sessions held in-person and online; as well as young adults who gathered to explore their faith lives; .

PARISHES AND PEOPLE . . . Read about the 2024 Annual Catholic Appeal, which recently rolled out in the parishes. The theme: “One Love; One Faith; One Family,” conveys the understanding that we all have a role to play in the work of the Church.

BE INSPIRED . . . Sister Brunilda Ramos spends lifetime listening to, sitting with the brokenhearted

ALSO …. Be sure to look for these items: Mount Laurel parish welcomes new altar; Father Koch’s Scripture reflection; Mary Morrell uncovers the ‘quiet lessons’ under the willow tree,

PLUS …. Lots more local coverage; faith insights from our talented columnists, and key diocesan events
