Welcome to St. Peter's

Here at the Parish of St. Peter the Apostle we hope to keep Jesus Christ as our reference point for everything. A living relationship with our Lord is essential so as to discover the joy, hope, peace, love, freedom and life for which our hearts yearn.

Ash Wednesday

February 22, Ash Wednesday, marks the beginning of our Lenten observance. For forty days, we seek ever deeper conversion to Jesus Christ through prayer, fasting and almsgiving as we journey to the joy of Easter.

Ashes will be distributed during Mass - at 7:30 AM, 12:15 PM, 7:30 PM and 9:00 PM.

Wednesday Nights at St. Peter's

Make Wednesdays your night out at St. Peter's - to deepen your understanding of our Catholic faith and to grow in relationship with your faith community. Check out the Credo Course, in which Fr. Tom leads us in an exploration of our Church's "best-kept secret" - Catholic Social Teaching. Then, on the alternate weeks, join our Men's or Women's Group to share in a journey of deepening discipleship and spiritual friendship. These Wendesday evening activities begin at 7:30 and end at 9:00 PM.

Renewing the Church in New Brunswick, Part 2

Building on the success of the Renewing the Church in New Brunswick (Part One) process, Bishop Paul Bootkoski has asked the seven Roman Catholic parishes of the New Brunswick Deanery to come together with the Catholic Center at Rutgers, St. Peter’s University Hospital, and Catholic Charities throughout 2012 to pray, study, and discern a common future together through a second round of the Renewing the Church in New Brunswick process. Bishop Bootkoski believes this is the right time for Catholics in the City to come together and vision a bright future as one holy, catholic and apostolic Church.
