Annunciation B.V.M. Parish was opened on September 8, 1951 to serve
a growing Catholic Community in Bellmawr, NJ and was placed in the loving care
of Reverend Monsignor John Wiekowski. Under his guidance, an elementary school
was built and the Sisters of The Immaculate Heart of Mary were brought in to teach
the children. Along with increasing numbers of families came the need for a new
larger church and one was built in 1966. Renew developed a very active lay ministry
life in our church and that led us through our 50th Anniversary celebration
in 2001!
