Vision Statement:
We, sisters and brothers of Christ, live as a Roman Catholic community. We seek to stimulate, nurture and challenge one another spiritually and intellectually so as to live a Christ-centered life and bring the Gospel message to the people of Mount Olive Township, the tri-county areas of Morris, Sussex, and Warren, the Paterson Diocese, the state of New Jersey and the world. We strive to do this by growing personally in faith, acknowledging our need for life long formation and spiritual growth, while continually discerning God`s presence in our lives. We can achieve this by being a catalyst in building a loving and dynamic Catholic/Christian community: extending God`s unconditional welcome to all, working, praying, socializing and serving each person through full and active participation in our liturgies and volunteering and becoming involved in our 30 plus ministries.

Mission Statement:
Our parish, located within the northwest province of the Paterson Diocese, serves a diverse population varying in age and ethnicity. We are an active community of Roman Catholic believers who exist to be like Jesus abd bring Jesus to each other and all people. We value the importance of each individual person formed in the image of Christ. Our message and our beliefs are deep rooted in the Gospel of Christ. We express our faith through Eucharist, Word, Liturgy and service. We are commited to serving the Universal Church, beginning with our outreach to our local community. We welcome all who seek to know and love our Savior Jesus.
