St. Vincent Martyr School began Catholic Schools Week with a Mass celebrated by Bishop Serratelli in St. Vincent Martyr Church in Madison marking the Third Sunday in Ordinary Time Jan. 27. During the Mass, students of the parish’s St. Vincent Martyr School took part in the Mass as gift bearers, singers in the choir and greeters at the doors of the church.

Bishop Serratelli made a pastoral visit to St. Agnes Parish in Paterson Jan. 20 where he celebrated the 11:30 a.m. Mass for the Second Sunday in Ordinary Time. The Bishop’s visit also came the day before the feast day of the parish’s patron, St. Agnes, who is the patron saint of young girls and also the patron saint of chastity. She died a virgin-martyr at the age of 12 or 13 on Jan. 21, 304 in Rome.
