It appears that our parish has been registering new parishioners from some of the nearby parishes. This past weekend, we had over 10 new families register for our parish. While we're glad that new people are joining the good things that are happening at St. Anselm, I wonder if people are finally rejecting the outdated ways of the parishes which surround us.
I wonder why people who live in Ocean and Long Branch and Eatontown and Holmdel are joining our parish.
Whatever the reason, I pray that our community may prove to be a place and a people who welcome those from near and far. Let's be the community that truly sings: "All Are Welcome."
