Bishop Williams Asks Fr. Kevin J. Mohan to Serve as Spiritual Director at St. Andrew’s Seminary
The Catholic Community of the Holy Spirit shares both joy and sadness as we announce that Fr. Kevin J. Mohan, our beloved Co-Pastor, has been asked by Bishop Joseph Williams to serve as Spiritual Director at St. Andrew’s Seminary, part of Seton Hall University.
This new assignment reflects Bishop Williams’ confidence in Fr. Mohan’s spiritual leadership, priestly heart, and ability to guide young men discerning the call to the priesthood. It also echoes the theme Bishop Williams preached during last weekend’s Welcome Mass for the 2026 seminarians — the courage to step out of the boat and follow Christ wherever He leads.
After just over one year with us, Fr. Mohan has become a deeply loved part of our parish family. His youthful energy, vibrant preaching, and sincere spirituality have touched countless lives.
In his own words:
“Maybe I can put it this way: when seminarians ask me why they might want to become a priest, I will tell them about you.”
We invite all parishioners to join us at Fr. Mohan’s final weekend of Masses, especially the 10:30 AM Mass in Mullica Hill, followed by a reception in his honor.
Fr. Mohan’s letter to parishioners is available in this week’s parish bulletin or can be read at the attached link.
On September 12, the Knights of Columbus will host our 26th Annual Charity Golf Outing, and everyone is invited — parishioners, community members, and anyone who wants to take part. This event has grown steadily over the years, and we look forward to welcoming even more golfers and supporters to join us for a great day together.

LITURGY OF THE WORD
Pastor Dudo invites all parishioners to spend a few quiet moments with the weekend Scripture readings before coming to Mass. When we arrive already familiar with God’s Word, our hearts are more open, and the homily can speak to us in a deeper and more personal way. You can find each Sunday’s readings on the USCCB website, and we encourage you to make this a simple weekly practice of prayer and preparation.
The readings are from the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops website, which can be accessed by clicking the button below. Please read the Sunday readings, even if you attend the 4:00 PM Saturday Mass.
