As part of the Archdiocese of Newark's New Energies Initiative, since 2007 the four cluster parishes of West Essex (St. Aloysius, Notre Dame, Our Lady of the Blessed Sacrament and St. Thomas More) have collaborated on an adult education and formation forum held each year during Lent.

 Faith Quest's mission is to

• Deepen our understanding of God's profound, personal love for each of us.
• Embrace our faith through education, open inquiry and encouragement.
• Nurture an ever-growing awareness of God's Word and how it can impact our lives.
• Enjoy an experience that warms our hearts as we continue on our journey of faith.
