JerseyCatholic.org
JerseyCatholic.org is the official English and Spanish online news site of the Archdiocese of Newark, covering the archdiocesan Catholic communities in Bergen, Essex, Hudson and Union counties. As an evangeliziation and information source, JerseyCatholic.org supports the Cardinal Archbishop and our local Church to share relevant and timely news, updates, reflections and teachings with our Catholic communities and beyond.
Archdiocesan ministries and parish and school communities are encouraged to share stories, announcements and updates for publication consideration. Email news ideas to submissions@rcan.org. Notify the Office of Communications about events as far in advance as possible.
