ST. JOSEPH MOMS’ GROUP

Mothers of the Heart is a social group for moms of St. Joseph School and Parish. We meet two mornings a month from 8 – 10 a.m. in the Parish Life Center.. Free loving childcare is provided for children in a separate room of the PLC. It’s a great way to make new friends and chat with other moms. If you are interested in some time for yourself with female conversation and fellowship in a relaxed atmosphere, then we welcome you to join us at Mothers of the Heart. Look for our activities on the monthly school calendars and in the St. Joseph Church Bulletin. Mothers of the Heart sponsors the SJS Uniform Consignment Sale.

The Saint Joseph Women's Club has been in existence since the beginning of the church.

The main function of the Women's Club is to fill the needs of the Priests and the Altar, as well as supporting charitable organizations and endeavors. Aside from our membership dues, which is $5 collected annually in October, our main fundraisers are the two bake sales which are held each year.

From these funds, donations have been made to our Parish Health Ministry, to SJS Tuition Assistance, to the Social Action Committee and to help fund the church landscaping, just to name a few. The Womens' Club is open to all women of our Parish and all members, living and deceased are remembered at the Mass the 2nd Tuesday of each month, which is also the day of the Women's Club regular meeting and our Monthly Potluck Luncheon.

We are a social group, so please come and "check us out". New members are a blessing!

Health blurb: Boating is great fun and wearing lifejackets makes the trip safer.  Make sure all passengers put on a U.S. Coast guard approved life jacket. Air-filled or foam toys, including water wings, noodles or inner-tubes, in place of life jackets will not keep swimmers safe. Learn more by talking with the pa

The Neighbors in Christ committee ministers to members of our parish community by providing meals in the event of a funeral. Both the immediate bereaved and the larger social community can benefit from a funeral meal which functions as a group experience that focuses on the needs of the living. It can be a shared experience in a familiar structured setting which enables the living to celebrate the life of the deceased. Any contributions to this ministry are greatly appreciated.

Neighbors in Christ is in need of someone to coordinate the funeral luncheons provided for the families of deceased members of our parish.  Duties include organizing volunteers to provide covered dishes and serving during the meal.  This ministry is such a blessing to the families in their time of need. If you are interested, please call the church office or Fr. Tomy directly.
