🍬 BINGO, BUT MAKE IT SWEET! 🍬

What do you get when you bring together parents, grandparents, kids, lots of candy, and a little friendly competition? Candy Bingo! 🎉

Our Faith & Family Ministry recently hosted a fun-filled afternoon where families played bingo, won plenty of candy prizes, and enjoyed time together as a parish family.

And the fun didn’t stop with bingo! Raffle winners took home $5 Five Below gift cards, while attendees also helped make a difference by donating non-perishable food items to St. Mary’s P.A.T.H. Ministry.

🍭 Sweet prizes.
🎉 Big smiles.
❤️ Family fellowship.
🥫 Generous hearts.

A big thank-you to everyone who joined us and helped make Candy Bingo such a sweet success!

🎥🍂 **This Week’s 2-Minutes with the Pastor is Here!**

Why is **Msgr. Ken sad?** 😢
The days are getting shorter, it’s getting dark sooner… and summer is slipping away! 🌅🍂

But as Monsignor reminds us, **life goes on!** And there’s a beautiful lesson in that.

Drawing inspiration from **St. Teresa of Calcutta**, Msgr. Ken reminds us that whatever we do, we should **do it with love**. ❤️

Because when we put love into what we do, we are living out the Lord’s command and allowing our everyday lives to become an expression of our faith.

🎬 Watch this week’s *2-Minutes with the Pastor* for a little faith, a little wisdom, and maybe a reminder that even when the days get shorter… **God’s love never does!** ✝️❤️

**REMEMBERING SEPTEMBER 11, 2001**

On the **25th Anniversary of the September 11 terrorist attacks**, St. Mary’s Parish will gather in prayer and remembrance to honor the nearly 3,000 lives lost and all those whose lives were forever changed that day.

Please join us for a **Parish Mass of Remembrance**:

Friday, September 11, 2026
7:00 PM
St. Mary’s Church, Barnegat

We will join Catholics from throughout the **Diocese of Trenton**, as parishes across the Diocese gather in prayer to mark this solemn anniversary.

At the same time, **Bishop David M. O’Connell** will celebrate a Mass of Remembrance at **St. Mary, Mother of God Parish in Middletown**, uniting our Diocese in prayer and remembrance.

Let us pray for those who lost their lives, their families and loved ones, the first responders and all who continue to carry the wounds of that day.

May our prayers be a reminder of the preciousness of every human life and our call to stand together in faith, peace, and hope.

**May we never forget.**
