Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ:
On behalf of Cardinal Joseph Tobin, you are invited to read Returning to Grace: A Pastoral Letter on the Eucharist, which identifies and reflects on important questions that many in our archdiocese are asking today about worship and the Eucharist amid the ongoing pandemic. The pastoral letter offers Cardinal Tobin’s reflections, personal stories and some thoughts shared with us by Pope Francis during this challenging time.
To view the Cardinal's introductory video, visit the Archdiocesan website (www.rcan.org/cardinal-joseph-tobin-pastoral-letter).
I pray that you have a spiritually fruitful Lenten journey.
Father John
The Most Reverend Manuel Cruz, Auxiliary Bishop of Newark, offers a reflection on the Second Sunday of Lent.

God bless our Lenten journey.
