Dear Parishioners,

As the Lenten season progresses, we know that Holy Week and Pascha approach quickly. This great journey that we refer to as Holy & Great Lent is one that continues to remind us of our need to struggle in our Christian praxis especially because this all inevitably leads us to the cross that we each are told to carry in our own lives.

When we think of Great Lent, specifically the services, we usually associate them with dim lighting, somber music, lengthy services, and repeated references to repentance, God’s mercy and forgiveness. This is especially true in one of the more common services celebrated during the fast, Great Compline.

We are moving to a new online system for managing our parish called Realm. Everyone will be able to create their own account to see statements, make pledges, make donations and more.

Request New Account: https://onrealm.org/stathnj

Make Stewardship Pledge: https://onrealm.org/stathnj/AddPledge/1stewardship

Pay Stewardship: https://onrealm.org/stathnj/give/s2023

If you use the new system you do not need to mail a pledge card or payments – its all handled online. Once you request an account we will match your email to your existing stewardship account and you will be able to see a history of your donations. We will also be letting people opt-out of mailed statements to save costs and move to a paperless office over time. You can edit your profile to indicate if you still want statements mailed to you otherwise we will be sending them electronically.
