Consolidation of Churches in the Camden Diocese Continues

Bishop Joseph Galante (photo) formally announced today that the Church of St. Vincent de Paul in \"2005_10_16_McCoy_CamdenDiocese_ph_Galante\" Mays Landing and St. Bernard Mission in Dorothy, will unite into one parish, the Parish of St. Vincent dePaul on November 3, 2010. Father Edward Heintzelman has been named pastor of St. Vincent de Paul Parish for a term of six years.

The announcement establishing the new parish has been made in a formal decree which is published in the October 1 edition of the Catholic Star Herald (See page 17).

At the same time, after more than 100 years at its current location, St. Vincent de Paul Parish in Mays Landing is breaking ground for a new home. This event marks the beginning of construction of the new church at the site of Holy Cross Cemetery on Route 40, also in Mays Landing, NJ.

This new building, designed and being built by The Bannett Group, Ltd. of Cherry Hill, will house the church worship site, the parish offices, meeting rooms and food pantry, which are currently housed in separate facilities.
