On October 13, 2000, Bishop Nicholas A. DiMarzio, Bishop of Camden, in the Jubilee Year, and on the anniversary of the final apparition of Our Lady of Fatima, established Mater Ecclesiæ Roman Catholic Church within the Diocese.

We were established having no regional boundaries the way normal parishes do. This is in order to serve Catholics who feel an attachment to the Traditional Latin Mass and Sacraments according to the Roman Missal of 1962.

In 1988, Pope John Paul II in the binding Moto Proprio "Ecclesia Dei" encouraged a wide and generous application of the Traditional Latin Mass. 

Mater Ecclesiae is the first canonically established Church owned and staffed by a Roman Catholic Diocese, that has been granted exclusive use of the Roman Missal Typical Edition of 1962. 

The "Tridentine Mass" has been called "The Most Venerable Rite of Mass in all of Christianity" as well as "The Most Beautiful Thing This Side of Heaven". 

We invite you to join us as we celebrate these Divine Mysteries at Mater Ecclesiae.
