Holy Spirit School in Pequannock was honored by a morning visit Nov. 6 from Bishop Kevin J. Sweeney, who began the day by celebrating Mass for students in grades 6, 7 and 8 in the socially-distanced environment of Holy Spirit Church.

The pandemic has caused many sectors of society to suffer as outlets for aid have diminished. In particular, food pantries are experiencing low levels of donations. In order to combat this, students at Mount St. Dominic Academy (MSDA) in Caldwell and their families vowed to serve those who cannot care for themselves.

Bishop Kevin Sweeney made a pastoral visit to Our Lady Queen of Peace (OLQP) Parish in the Hewitt section of West Milford on Nov. 15 to preside at the 3 p.m. Mass for the 33rd Sunday in Ordinary Time. During his visit, he blessed and dedicated a new outdoor chapel, which gives the parish a permanent structure where it can hold Mass outdoors.
