faith is a journey
We, as Catholic Christians joyfully worship God in faith. We learn, live and share our faith with others, with Saint Joseph as our model. We listen to the Holy Spirit and use our gifts and talents as stewards to love and serve God and one another on our faith journey.
Engaging God's world through faith.
We envision our parish to be a community of faith, hope and love. In so doing we are also attempting to establish a community of the peace and justice envisioned by Jesus in the Gospels. What an inspiring and beautiful statement this is. Are you willing to take this challenge and be part of making this vision a reality? God is calling us.

The Advent season is a time of preparation that directs our hearts and minds to Christ’s second coming at the end of time and also to the anniversary of the Lord’s birth on Christmas.
devotionAL / EVENTS
the 4th Sunday of Advent
As we enter into the fourth week of Advent, we are given our Blessed Mother and St. Joseph to reflect upon. Though our Blessed Mother was perfect, and St. Joseph was a deeply virtuous man, they were both still fully human and would have walked through Mary’s pregnancy and Jesus’ birth with every human emotion and experience.
