“Let the word of Christ, rich as it is, dwell in you. In wisdom made perfect, instruct and admonish one another. Sing gratefully to God from your hearts in psalms, hymns, and inspired songs.”
St. Jerome’s parishioners have notable community-wide events throughout the year. See the photo gallery for scenes from selected events
St. Jerome’s church liturgies are the core of our parish community. They offer the opportunity to come together to celebrate God’s love for us and our love for Him. We believe Liturgy to be the wellspring of faith, the focal point of spirituality, and the source of Christian life and action.
The Liturgy Committee plans the seasonal liturgies for Adve
nt, Christmas, Lent, Holy Week, Easter, and Pentecost; special celebrations such as All Soul’s Day and Thanksgiving; the training and scheduling of Readers, Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion, altar servers, and ushers; and the general planning of the liturgical year. Liturgy Committee minutes are taken and are posted at the end of this page.
If you would like to help Liturgy be the core of our community’s worship, please join us. We meet monthly, September to May, and welcome all interested parishioners. CONTACT: Suzanne Calnon, 203-847-6826, suzcal@aol.com

Ministries
Readers are chosen and specifically trained for their role to proclaim God’s living word at weekend and special liturgies, and make God present in the Liturgy of the Word for the parish community. CONTACT: Suzanne Calnon, 203-847-6826, suzcal@aol.com
Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion are selected and specifically trained for their role as authorized special ministers of Communion who share the Body and Blood of Christ with their fellow worshipers as they assist in distributing Holy Eucharist at weekend Masses and at special liturgies.

Altar Servers are children or adults, third grade and up, who perform a service to God and to the parish. Altar servers assist and aid the clergy and serve at the altar on weekend and special Masses so the liturgy can be conducted with grace and reverence.
