The Primary purpose and goal of the Rosary Altar Society is to praise and honor the Blessed Virgin Mary and to secure her patronage by the recitation of the Rosary for the mutual spiritual benefit of all the members throughout the world, along with special intentions.
 
The secondary purpose of the Rosary Altar Society is to care for the altar and altar linens and to work and assist our Pastor in support of the altar. Since we have been entrusted with the care of the altar, our duty is to provide and maintain a suitable dwelling place for our Lord Jesus Christ.

The Rosary Society is both spiritual and social and participates in raising funds and planning events to support the needs of the Church.

We cordially invite all women of our parish to come and join the Rosary Altar Society to become part of our continuous prayer of praise and intercession to Mary, the Queen of the Holy Rosary.   Meetings are held the first Monday of each month (September through June).

We are truly blessed at St. James to have as part of our society our “Young Roses”. This is a group of fine young girls, grades 6 and up, who are encouraged to pray with us and may offer their assistance in keeping the altar of the Lord tidy.

Please see any member of the Rosary Altar Society for membership information.

If you are interesed in joining the Rosery Society or Young Roses, please contact the Rectory at (973) 790-0288 and leave your contact information.
