Jn 15:1-8
Jesus said to his disciples:
"I am the true vine, and my Father is the vine grower.
He takes away every branch in me that does not bear fruit,
and every one that does he prunes so that it bears more fruit.
You are already pruned because of the word that I spoke to you.
Remain in me, as I remain in you.
Just as a branch cannot bear fruit on its own
unless it remains on the vine,
so neither can you unless you remain in me.
I am the vine, you are the branches.
Whoever remains in me and I in him will bear much fruit,
because without me you can do nothing.
Anyone who does not remain in me
will be thrown out like a branch and wither;
people will gather them and throw them into a fire
and they will be burned.
If you remain in me and my words remain in you,
ask for whatever you want and it will be done for you.
By this is my Father glorified,
that you bear much fruit and become my disciples."

Each Tuesday Weekly adoration of the Blessed Sacrament
Weekly adoration of the Blessed Sacrament will be held EACH Tuesday immediately following the Our Lady of Perpetual Help Devotions from noon to 9:00 p.m. beginning November 9. To ensure that there is always someone in attendance during the entire time, we are asking for 7 volunteers to commit to be present for a specific one-hour segment EACH TUESDAY OF NOVEMBER AND DECEMBER. Since the Blessed Sacrament cannot be left unattended, each one-hour attendant will be responsible to be present at their selected time or secure a replacement. You can select the hour of your choice on the signup sheet in the church vestibule or call the parish office at 908-725-0072.

FROM THE PASTOR'S DESK
APRIL 7 2024
Dear Parishioners,
Our Jubilee of 105-years of Roman Catholic Parish Life in Manville is once again an excellent opportunity to “Remember our past, celebrate our present and secure our future”. It is also a call to renew and deepen our faith in Jesus who by his passion and resurrection has conquered death and sin. His resurrection is not just a fact of history to be retold. It is a mystery to be lived every day.
During this special time of grace, may Christ the Redeemer, who defeated death and evil, bestow upon you many graces. May He strengthen your faith, give you happiness, protect you and your loved once. May God reward your generosity and support of our Parish. Have a HAPPY EASTER!
Fr. Stan
OBITUARY AND UPCOMING FUNERALS

Mary E. Evancho
April 21, 2024
Mary Elizabeth Evancho, of Manville, NJ, 86, entered eternal rest.
A viewing for Mary will be held at the Ketusky Funeral Home in Manville on Tuesday, April 30th from 3:00 pm-7:00 pm and on Wednesday, May 1st 8:00 am-8:30 am. Following this, funeral services will be held at Sacred Heart Church (Christ the Redeemer Parish) in Manville on Wednesday, May 1st at 9:00 am with burial proceedings to follow at Sacred Heart Cemetery in Hillsborough, NJ.
Regine Holewinski, 101. passed away on April3, 2024 surrounded by his wife and children.
The visitation will be on Tuesday, April 9, 2024 from 8:30 AM to 9:30 AM at the Ketusky Funeral Home, 1310 Brooks Blvd., Manville, NJ 08835. The graveside service and burial will follow at 10:00 AM at Sacred Heart Cemetery, 1096 Millstone River Road, Hillsborough, NJ 08844.
In the face of death, the Church confidently proclaims that God has created each person for eternal life and that Jesus, by his death and resurrection, has destroyed death forever.
Christians celebrate the funeral rites to offer worship, praise and thanksgiving to God for the gift of life which has now been returned to God, the author of life. We pray for the person who has died - asking for the forgiveness of sin and the gift of everlasting life.
To make arrangements for a funeral liturgy, please contact the parish office at 908-725-0072
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to CHRIST THE REDEEMER PARISH via our ONLINE MEMORIAL DONATIONS system.
An acknowledgment of your donation will be sent to the family.
