A Word from the Parish
The Diocese of Paterson is divided into twelve territorial districts or deaneries. The Northern Passaic Deanery includes Our Lady of the Holy Rosary, Dover, Sacred Heart, Dover, Sacred Heart of Jesus, Rockaway, Saint Bernard, Wharton, Saint Cecilia, Rockaway, Saint Clement Pope & Martyr, Rockaway Township, Saint Mary, Denville, Saint Mary, Dover, and Saint Simon the Apostle, Green Pond.
On Friday evening, April 13, 2018, the parishes of the Deanery, including St. Clement, supported the presentation of Array of Hope at Morris Catholic High School in Denville.
The presentation was sponsored by Bell and Shivas, PC, Attorneys at Law, Rockaway, and was well received by the members of the audience, many from St. Clement.
Array of Hope is a multimedia concert experience that features multiple musical acts, motivational speakers and thought-provoking film presentations which joyously provide a counterweight to the negative media surrounding today's society. It brings Christ's message of faith, hope and love to its audiences: it celebrates family life and the joy that comes from a relationship with God.
This pictorial recreation of the performance is weakened by the absence of sound. We hope you can sense the excitement generated by the participants of the show. From the hysterical "Chubby Bunny" marshmallow contest, that included three members of the audience, to the rocking musical presentations by the talented performers, the evening was a one-hundred percent winner.
Like this weakened, soundless pictorial presentation, is your life weakened by the absence of Christ's message of faith, hope and love?
A Word from the Producer, Mario Costabile
Array of Hope was created to address the degradation of values and the lack of spirituality that exists in our culture today by bringing Christ's message of Faith, Hope and Love to as many people as possible.
Our society is greatly affected by the media. Messages are both seen and heard everywhere through music, video, the internet, movies and television. So often these messages run counter to the teachings of our faith.
The ultimate goal of Array of Hope is to plant the seed of the love of the Lord Jesus Christ in the hearts of Christians, thereby creating a resistance to the negative influences of today's society.
Array of Hope uses relevant forms of media in a positive light to reach out in an effort to transform hearts. By offering solutions founded in the love of Christ, our hope is that a profound change may occur in those who experience Array of Hope.
