Our Mission
Through prayer and service, the St. Joseph family will strive to bring the community together to love, heal, and support one another as the people we are called to be in Christ.
This week's liturgy
Follow
This week we are reminded of Jesus’s Gospel words
“If anyone wishes to come after me,
he must deny himself
and take up his cross daily and follow me.”
These words remind us of the commitment needed to truly follow Jesus. We should say a daily prayer, and most importantly follow his example to love and help our fellow neighbor.
Please join us at Mass as we celebrate this holy season
and find ways we can be inspired by Jesus’s love.
