Our mission at St. Joseph Church & School is this: To strengthen marriage and the family through the sacramental life of the Church and to cultivate a shared commitment to the following areas of Christian life: Conversion, Discipleship, and Evangelization. The members of the Pastoral Council are leaders within the parish community and reflect the rich diversity of our parish.
