Parish Office : Open Monday through Friday From 9:00am to 4:30pm
The mission of St. Joseph’s Church is to be a welcoming, caring, Christ-centered Catholic community. We desire to
experience and share God’s unconditional love. Inspired by the example of Jesus, we strive to lead all people to
wholeness and fullness of life.
The Sacrament of Marriage is celebrated after a period of preparation of no less than six months. Those who wish to marry at St. Joseph’s are invited to contact one of the priests during regular weekday office hours before making any other arrangements. The Sacrament of Baptism is celebrated, on the first and third Sundays of the month at 1:30pm. Please call the Parish Office to schedule an appointment with one of the priests. The Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick is available at any time to any Catholic over the age of reason who is seriously ill, preparing for surgery or suffering the effects of age. The priests of the parish regularly celebrate the Eucharist and administer the sacrament of the sick at the area nursing homes; lay ministers lead services and bring communion to the residents every Sunday.

O blessed Joseph, faithful guardian of my Redeemer, Jesus Christ, protector of thy chaste spouse, the virgin Mother of God, I choose thee this day to be my special patron and advocate and I firmly resolve to honor thee all the days of my life. Therefore I humbly beseech thee to receive me as thy client, to instruct me in every doubt, to comfort me in every affliction, to obtain for me and for all the knowledge and love of the Heart of Jesus, and finally to defend and protect me at the hour of my death. Amen

Consider Sharing Your Faith With the Children of the Parish
Pope Francis reminds us that children are the greatest blessing that God has given us. We have a
wonderful group of dedicated Catechists who take the time to teach our beautiful Catholic Faith to
the children of the Parish.
At this time I would like to ask you to prayerfully consider joining this dedicated group. Due to the
pandemic we have moved our Faith Formation program to an Online learning /Virtual program. Stu-
dents will complete lessons online with their parents and Catechists will meet virtually via ZOOM for
45 minutes every other week with a class.
We currently have openings for the following sessions:
Sunday 10:30am-11:15am session for 6th & 7th grades
Monday 4:30pm- 5:15pm session for 4th & 5th grades.
Tuesday 4:30pm- 5:15pm session for 1st, 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th grades
You don’t have to teach alone, you can team up with a friend or neighbor and co-teach a class. We
will be providing in person (distanced) ZOOM training for all Catechists at the end of September in
the Parish Center. Virtual class are scheduled to begin the week of October 18th.
Please feel free to contact me anytime to discuss this rewarding ministry! Continued Blessings for
health and strength in these uncertain times.
