IMPORTANCE OF FORMAL REGISTRATION
Registration is a very important part of being a parishioner of Corpus Christi. Our communication with you is made easier once we have your information in our database. In order for families to receive a tuition discount at Corpus Christi School, they need to be registered and using their envelopes/electronic giving as proof of their support to our parish.
The occasion may arise when you are asked to be a sponsor for Baptism and/or Confirmation. The church in which the sacrament is being held may ask you for proof that you are a registered, practicing Catholic. We can only provide such documentation if the priests recognize you as a regular Sunday attendee and registered in the parish. There is a three-month eveluation period for new parishioners of your participation before determining if a Sponsor Certificate is issued. Please use your contribution envelopes or electronic giving to indicate your participation along with Mass attendance.
Formal registration is the best way of communicating with you and showing that you wish to be a part of our parish family.

NEW COVID DIRECTIVES AND LIFTING OF DISPENSATION
Please review the new Covid Directives that will take effect the weekend of June 5-6. Dispensation rules are changed as of this weekend as well.
New Covid Regulations
As you are aware, the CDC, the State and the Archdiocese have been modifying guidelines for dealing with the Covid Pandemic. They seem to be changing fairly often - making it hard to communicate what the “rules” are so that everyone knows what to expect.
Several changes will be in effect the weekend of July 3rd/4th:
Indoor capacity limits will be lifted.
- If you are vaccinated, you do not have to wear a mask.
- If you are unvaccinated, it is recommended that you continue to wear a mask.
These two conditions are causing lots of controversy in our country today. But we are a community inside these walls – a family – And we appeal to all of you to be sensitive to each other with whatever personal choices others make in this regard. We do not judge who makes what choices, but we also need to be respectful of anyone who is fearful when they come into our worship space. Our collective goal must be to make everyone comfortable even if we do not understand their concerns. So if someone wants to maintain some space around them, let’s do that for them.
Other Directions:
- Holy Water will be available iin the fonts.
- There will continue to be no physical contact at the Sign of Peace.
- Dispensation from attending Mass
Cardinal Tobin and the Bishops of NJ have rescinded the dispensation that was granted from attending Sunday Mass. In other words the obligation to attend Sunday Mass unless there are outstanding circumstances is back in effect as it always was prior to the pandemic.
We want to communicate this to everyone as an INVITATION to return to your spiritual home – This Place of Worship. For any loving relationship to thrive there is a built in obligation to be there for each other. The obligation is a product of the love between two parties. So what we are saying is that everyone is being given the opportunity to bring their love of Jesus Christ back into full communion by receiving His Real Presence in the Eucharist and freely attending Mass once again.
We hope that each of you here will help communicate that to others who have not yet returned to their home of worship. And to do it not as a judgment, but as an invitation.
