Covid-19 Guidelines at St. Joseph To maintain current safety standards for public spaces in our community, we now require that everyone wear a mask indoors, including Mass and common spaces. Thank you for understanding this necessary precaution we are taking to protect the common good. For now, we are also suspending congregational singing at Mass.
World Mission Sunday
On October 17 we will celebrate World Mission Sunday. Pope Francis invites the entire Church to support mission dioceses in Africa, Asia, the Pacific Islands, and parts of Latin America and Europe, where priests, religious and lay leaders serve the world’s most vulnerable communities. Please keep the Pope’s missions in your prayers and be generous in next week’s collection for the Society for the Propagation of the Faith.
