Saint Edward Catholic Church, Newark
Welcome!
You enter this Church not as a stranger, but as a guest of God. As a baptized person, you enter it
as a son or daughter of the Father in Christ. This House of God, therefore, is your family home.
Come in then with humility of mind, joy of heart, and thanks in your soul. Acknowledge the Lord’s
presence in the Tabernacle and adore Him. Come in and pause in prayer in the midst of your
busy life and its many concerns. Be grateful to those who, for the glory of God and in honor of
St. Edward, built our place of worship and our school with faith and sacrifice, and sanctified it with
their songs and prayers. Anyone who wishes to practice the Catholic faith by attending this parish
may consider St. Edward Church their parish home, no matter where one lives in the area.
You simply need to register.

Twenty-Fourth Sunday in Ordinary Time
Reading II Jas 2:14-18
What good is it, my brothers and sisters,
if someone says he has faith but does not have works?
Can that faith save him?
If a brother or sister has nothing to wear
and has no food for the day, and one of you says to them,
“Go in peace, keep warm, and eat well, ”
but you do not give them the necessities of the body,
what good is it?
So also faith of itself, if it does not have works, is dead.
Reading I Is 50:5-9a Indeed someone might say, “You have faith and I have
The Lord GOD opens my ear that I may hear; works.” Demonstrate your faith to me without works,
