In Bap sm we are reborn as children of God, made mem-bers of His Church, and heirs to the Kingdom of Heaven. With this in mind, we welcome these children of God who were bap-tized August 4, 2019: Valeria Massiel Castillo Aguilar daughter of Car los & Josheline; Brenda Naomi Colocho Chavarria daughter of Daniel & Brenda; Kaylor Barmore Marquez Rivera daughter of Kevin & Kar la; Allan Gilberto Montoya Alcerro son of Santos & Heidie; Brianna Portillo daughter of Oscar & Evelyn; Bryan Aiden Vidal Bonilla son of Billy & Jennifer ;
Dear Saint Joseph Parish community, As you may have heard in the announcement last week, I have been asked to serve the Province of the Most Sacred Heart (the friars), as the new Vocations Director, living at Franciscan Univer-sity of Steubenville, in Steubenville, Ohio. I am very excited to take on this new ministry of re-cruiting and assisting young men in discerning if God is calling them to join us as friars of the Third Order Regular. At the same time, I am sad to be leaving the community I have come to know and love at Saint Joseph. Due to requirements of various other assign-ments, my last day of ministry at Saint Joseph will be August 11th. Yes, this Sunday. Because of the late notice and tight schedule, I will certainly not be able to offer a proper goodbye to all of you. Please accept my apologies in this. Most of all, please accept my gratitude for being such a wonderful community of faith and hospitality. I truly enjoyed getting to know all of you and I offer my prayers for you all. Many thanks! Peace and good, Fr. Vince, T.O.R.

Peace and good! The friars of the Franciscan Third Order Reg-ular, Province of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus gathered in Loretto, Pennsylvania in July for a Provincial Chapter of the Whole.

During the Chapter, the friars reflected up-on and discussed the essential elements of their lives: Francis-can penitential spirituality, prayer and life in the local/regional communities, formation and ongoing formation of the friars, the ministries which they are called to as a community, etc. We share the following particular assignments that were made after the Province Chapter of the Whole: Director of Vocations – Fr.
