Welcome to the Church of St. Rita!
We are gearing up for summer with lots of fun programs for pre-school through high school age youth. Check out the tabs for Elementary and for Jr./Sr. High Faith Formation on the main menu for more information.
Upcoming Events: On Saturday, June 15, the newly ordained Fr. Fabian Moncada Benevides will celebrate a Mass of Thanksgiving at our 5:00pm liturgy. Fabian has been a valuable and much-loved presence here during his years at the St. Paul Seminary. We have been blessed to serve as his teaching parish, and look forward to celebrating this Mass with him. Join us also for a reception in Seton Hall following this Mass.
Also, on weekend of June 22 and 23 we will be saying thanks to our outgoing Business Administrator, Maureen O'Kane. After 17+ years of service to this parish in a variety of capacities, Maureen is retiring. We will host a reception after each Mass that weekend, so that all can shake her hand and offer any wisdom, favorite memories, or thanks you wish to convey to Maureen. She will be dearly missed!
