St. Edward Parish, first built as a small chapel in 1919, to server a community that flourished each summer, became a parish in 1953. In 1977, the existing parish center was dedicated. Under the patronage of St. Edward, the Confessor, the parish has united as a true family which is demonstrated in the care and concern shown to fellow parishioners.

As early as 1880, a priest from the city of Camden, Father Michael Dilelsi, was assigned by Trenton Bishop McFaul to celebrate Mass each Sunday in what was then known as West Berlin. Mass was celebrated either in private homes or in the stable at the Old Tavern. At this time, most of the Catholics in the area were farmers of Italian heritage. When it had grown to 200 families in 1903, it became an established parish. Father Peter Paris was the first pastor. The parish was responsible during his years for Catholics in Blue Anchor, Waterford, Atco, and Gibbsboro. A new church was dedicated by Bishop McMahon of Trenton on October 4, 1931, located at Cedar Avenue and White Horse Pike.

In 2006, Bishop Galante announced the formation of core teams to determine how parishes would merge. On November 4th, 2009, St. Simon Stock Parish was established. Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Parish in Berlin and St. Edward's Parish in Pine Hill merged to become one parish, St. Simon Stock.
