    I could easily write a terrible review for 8-10 churches in Monmouth or ocean. But not this church. Not just welcoming to the "click" but in truth welcoming to all. Great group of Fathers.

    This is my parish and I love it. The pastor is from Uganda but speaks fluent English and is a lovely and very intelligent man. I really appreciate his homilies. I also think he is very good in the confessional.

    I love Father Pat!. What a lovely soul. Thank you for confirming my fiancee. Jason is pretty adamant about you marrying us. Im kind of a justice of the peace kind of gal or perhaps a nice wedding in the park. Hmmm... I wonder if Father Pat would marry us outside... THAT would be awesome. A very Lovely church indeed. Lots of love...God bless you. ❤️💕
