Admission, payable at the door, includes lunch. Our speaker is Eileen Lombardo, president of Catholic Women of Zion Chapter II, since February 22, 1997. She has spoken at Retreats throughout New Jersey. Eileen has been married for 54 years and has three married children and five wonderful grandchildren, and they have a little “saint” in heaven. Eileen was an active member of St. Mary’s in Barnegat starting in 1973. She joined her husband Earl, who was ordained as a permanent Deacon for the Diocese of Trenton in 1989, in service and ministering to the parish as a CCD teacher, Extraordinary Minister of the Holy Eucharist, Pre Cana and Baptismal Prep Classes. After moving to Lacey Twp. in 1989, they became members of St. Pius X Church in 2007. In 2006 Eileen completed training for the Diocese of Trenton and became part of a team teaching our Diaconate Program Listening & Caring Skills. In one of the most humbling moments of her life, she received the Brown Scapular, the Holy Habit of the Secular Order of Carmelites and on March 8, 2019, she made her Definitive Promise. Eileen invites us to join her, as she shares: “Come let us climb the mountain of the Lord.” Come and bring a friend! Reservations are necessary.
