St. John the Evangelist
a Roman Catholic
Community
We are located in Bergenfield, NJ. We are a community united in faith and guided by the Holy Spirit. This site on the information superhighway was designed to provide information about our parish community's various ministries and services. St. John the Evangelist is a parish of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Newark, NJ.
St. John's is a multi-cultural Catholic parish, with a wide variety of services for spiritual enrichment, youth development, and social interaction. As you browse our web pages, perhaps there will be something especially appealing to you.
Please feel free to contact us for more information, or even if you have any questions about our Catholic faith that you have always wanted to ask but were never quite sure when, where, or whom you would ask.
St. John's was established in 1905, and is still growing into the new millennium. It is our hope that, through this website, we will be able to reach out to even more people, both locally and in cyberspace, with the message of Jesus, so vividly highlighted by St. John the Evangelist, to love God above all things, and to love our neighbor as ourselves.
Our pastor, Msgr. Richard J. Arnhols will celebrate his Golden Anniversary of Priestly Ordination on May 20, 2023. A solemn Mass at St. John's Church followed by a reception at Conlon Hall is being planned honoring Msgr. Rich. We cordially invite you to join us at this event.
We are putting together a souvenir program book to commemorate this event. We request you to advertise in the Souvenir Journal which will be distributed during the event.
Thank you for your kind support and generosity.
