and love for others is truly wonderful and we are most appreciative. Thank you for
    guiding us on our journeys of faith - with the Sacraments, for showing such
 patience with altar serving and for your understanding of where each of us are at
    on our individual paths. Your constant encouragement enables each of us to
  maintain a connection with our Parish and faith. You continue to inspire us and
  instill confidence in our faith and in humanity. Congratulations and well done!
 Wishing you much happiness, peace and continued success for many more years.

Thank you for being such an inspiring priest, you have been absolutely wonderful
  and a spiritual guide to us all, and we greatly appreciate your leadership of the
 Parish and your personal friendship. We have been privileged to have you as our
Pastor for 8 years and are incredibly proud of your achievement! We admire your
   reverence in the liturgy, your modern approach to our changing Church, your
articulate homilies and your warmth and care to all your flock. Wishing you every
                      happiness and success in the years ahead.
                From the entire Saint Joseph’s R.C. Church Family

The Annual Catholic Appeal seeks to raise a
                                                   minimum of $8 million to provide programs and
                                                   ministries throughout the Diocese and support the
                                                           local efforts of parishes like ours.

                            The goal at St. Joseph’s Church is $50,048.

   As of Monday May 26th 84 families have pledged $31,541. The ACA has received $25,899.66.
Once we exceed our goal, we will then receive 100% of all funds raised above this figure directly
                                      back to our parish.
