Rev. Marc Mancini, Pastor

I was born and raised in Paterson, New Jersey. There, I attended public schools from Grades K - 12. After completing high school, I began to work as an industrial electrician.

Following approximately five years of working full time, I decided to discern the call to be a priest, and further my formal education. I thereafter spent four years at Seton Hall University, and four additional years at St. Mary Seminary and University in Baltimore, Maryland. On November 28, 1992, I became a priest of the Paterson Diocese.

My assignments as a priest have been at St. Therese, Succasunna, (1992-1997), Catholic University of America, Washington, DC, (1997-1999), St. Michael, Paterson, NJ, (1999), St. James, Totowa, (2000), St. Paul, Prospect Park, (2000-2005), St. Simon, Green Pond, (2005-2010) and St. Therese, Succasunna, (2010-present).

Indeed, it has been and continues to be a privilege to serve the church as a priest. It is with sincere gratitude and heartfelt thanks to the Lord, I am serving the good people of this parish as pastor. I am very happy to be here.
