Saint Joseph Cemetery — It is mowing season. Please remove any flowers, etc from family graves. Any small items that do not fit on the gravestone itself may be discarded by our mowing crew. We strive to keep our sacred cemetery well-maintained, please help us by keeping your loved one’s grave(s) clutter-free. Anyone with complaints about missing items please speak with Fr Riley about your concern. Thanks
We extend our sympathy and prayers to Tina Via in the passing o her mother, Dorothy Elder to the judgement seat of the Almighty God. Eternal rest grant unto her, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon her. May her soul and the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.
All Fridays of Lent (except the Solemnity of Saint Joseph Husband of the Blessed Virgin Mary (19 March) are days of Abstinence from meat from warm-blooded animals.
Our Lady of Guadalupe, through your intercession, save our babies!!!!
Attendance at Holy Mass
DUE TO LIMITED CAPACITY AND THE VULNERABILITY OF THE MAJORITY OF OUR PARISHIONERS, I ASK THAT VISITORS JOIN US ONLINE RATHER THAN IN PERSON.
Thank you to all who are striving to be cooperative and are trying to make the best out of this difficult time.
To be succinct the guidelines are:
Everyone must wear a mask.
Everyone must use hand sanitizer.
Chairs are not to be moved or grouped together.
Fill the gym chairs closest to the Altar and fanning out before the parish center chairs.
Bathrooms are for emergency use only.
Doors open 10 minutes before Mass and lock at Mass time or capacity of 200.
Use Parish Center open door to enter/exit Masses
Those who are at risk of infection due to age and/or weakened immunity are encouraged to continue to pray at home and, if possible, to avail themselves to participation in the Holy Mass via media opportunities.
Click icon for Livestream Masses from Saint Joseph Parish will be offered for the vulnerable homebound at 5 PM Saturday, 8 and 10:30 AM on Sunday. Those who are regularly out in public should be attending Mass in person unless you have been out of state, have been around those who have active COVID or have any symptoms of the virus.
Sacrament of Penance & Reconciliation
Confessions are heard on the parking lot on Saturdays at Noon (I will not wait around if no one is there). For those who are homebound due to the pandemic Bishop Medley continues to encourage you to examine your conscience at home and make a perfect Act of Contrition. Others are expected to come to confession to be absolved before receiving Holy Communion unworthily.
