Good News

The Church celebrates the feast of Pentecost. The Holy Spirit that Jesus promised to send came upon the Apostles. Today's feast, fifty days after Easter, is a reflection of God's love to us and His church. May the Spirit of love always guide and enlighten us.

CCD NEWS - CCD classes have ended for the summer months. Please remember that God does not forget us, so we shouldn't forget Him by going to church every week.

Over the past few months, donations to the Renovation Fund or Fuel Fund have been given in memory of loved ones who passed away. These are greatly appreciated and show your kindness to the church. God bless.

Parish Council meeting on Mon., May 12th at 6:30 PM in the church hall.

PAV and PAVA installation will take place next Sat., May 17th, at 6:30 PM in the church hall.

Please Note - as of May 4th, St. Joseph Parish has been off the air on Sunday mornings due to a lack of a sponsor. Mr. Boucher of Boucher's Funeral Home has been sponsoring us for the past two years, but no longer can continue to support us. If any business or individual would like to sponsor St. Joseph Church for the Mass, please see Fr. Tom. The cost is $100.00 per Sunday. This is a great outreach program for those who are unable to go to church.
