Welcome to St. Catherine of Siena Church! St. Catherine’s has been the spiritual home for the Mountain Lakes, Boonton Township, Boonton, Denville, Parsippany,and Rockaway communities and beyond since 1957. Generations of families have worshipped and continue to worship here. It is the place where we grow together spiritually, in service, and socially. We encounter the living God in the person of Jesus Christ through the power of the Holy Spirit. We experience the Lord sacramentally and in the lives of one another. St. Catherine’s is a place of welcome in which hospitality is offered to all, whether you are a first-time visitor or as a member of our community. We welcome all of you who seek the Lord. We are blessed by your presence. We span different generations, but all seeking to build an experience of Church that is genuinely welcoming, mission oriented, and Christ-centered. Whatever brings you to St. Catherine’s, please know that you are always welcome. May the Lord give you his peace!

Celebrating the Joys and Blessings of the Seasons Concert - Our fourth annual Christmas concert will take place on Saturday, December 15th at 8 pm. This year we welcome internationally renowned tenors Will & Anthony. Twin brother tenors and songwriters Will & Anthony Nunziata have headlined in major performing arts centers, theaters and symphony concert halls across the country and around the world. The renowned singers, songwriters, Netflix-bound comedians and Carnegie Hall headliners are the Brooklyn-born, classically trained singing and comedy brother duo hailed by The Huffington Post as “a nearly impossible pairing of talent, stage presence and charisma.”
November - Remembering All Souls - During the month of November we remember our departed brothers and sisters who have gone to their rest. If you would like your loved one(s) to be remembered in the Masses for the month of November, please write their names on the All Souls envelope provided in your envelope packet or in the vestibule and place it in the collection basket with your offering.
Thanksgiving Day - All parishioners, families and friends are invited to a special Mass of Thanksgiving at 9:00 am on Thanksgiving Day. You are invited to write petitions of thanksgiving which will be read at the Mass. Please email your petitions to parishoffice@stcatherine-ml.org or tear off the slip in the Bulletin and return by dropping in the basket in the vestibule. Petitions must be received by noon Monday, November 19 to be included. At the conclusion of Mass, loaves of bread will be blessed and distributed. This bread is a wonderful reminder of the Thanksgiving table of the altar around which we, as a parish family, have gathered to above all give thanks to God in the most perfect way – the Eucharistic Banquet.
FLOCKNOTE - As part of opening up the lines of communication in the parish, you are invited to subscribe to a service called FLOCKNOTE…like sending “notes” to the “flock.” It is totally free for you to use and it is going to make it easy for you to stay plugged in to the activities of the parish via text message. It is something that people of all ages can use as long as you have a cell phone with texting abilities. Please know that your information is completely safe and secure.
FLOCKNOTE is very simple. Text the letters SienaML to the 5-digit phone number 84576. Make sure your autocorrect on your phone does not mistakenly change the text. Once you send that in, FLOCKNOTE will send you back a confirmation message and a verification code with a link to enter the code. That’s it! You can also subscribe online by visiting flocknote.com/SienaML. Follow the instructions to register.
Loaves and Fishes - Loaves and Fishes is a group of Caring Cooks who are ready to provide a warm meal to an individual or a family on a short term basis for a variety of reasons - a death in the family, someone in the hospital or seriously ill at home, a family adjusting to a new baby. Please call Katherine Di Ricco at 973-263-2158 if you would like to be a part of this rewarding ministry, or if our cooks can serve you or someone you know.
