The Third Sunday

"Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again; but whoever drinks the water I shall give will never thirst"
-John 4:13
Most of the things we look to for satisfaction only work for a little while; eventually, the 'thirst' always returns. But in the Gospel, Jesus offers something different: a spring of water welling up from within. He isn't talking about a temporary fix, but a source of life and peace that stays with us regardless of our circumstances. This week, move past the things that leave you empty and encounter the Living Water that truly satisfies.

Lenten Penance Service
Whether it has been a month or many years since your last confession, please know that you are welcome here.
We invite you to join us for our Lenten Penance Service, held at Ss Peter & Paul, on Wednesday, March 18. Lent is a season of renewal, and this service is a beautiful opportunity to experience God’s healing grace and peace.
The 2026 Annual Appeal is officially underway at our parish. This yearly initiative is more than just a collection; it is a critical opportunity for us to support the mission of the Church across all four counties of our Archdiocese. We extend our sincere gratitude to the parishioners who have already made a pledge or gift to the 2026 Appeal. If you have not yet had the chance to contribute, we invite you to prayerfully consider how you can help us meet our goal.
SAVE THE DATE
Join us for a vibrant night out in Hoboken as we enjoy a buffet of Tex-Mex favorites and an open bar in a lively, colorful setting - all in support of Ss. Peter & Paul! Thanks to the incredible generosity of the Robert's family and Manager Ryan McEnerney, this entire evening has been gifted, ensuring that 100% of event proceeds go directly to SPP. It’s the perfect opportunity to grab a margarita, enjoy your favorite Mexican dishes, and make a meaningful impact on our Parish community.
