St. Joseph Catholic Church’s mission centers on a simple yet profound verse from the first Book of Peter in the New Testament. The parish has embodied every word of this profound verse during its long history, and it has survived many challenges because parishioners have approached the altar of sacrifice and worship and remained steadfast in faith with hearts full of purpose. Through their strong determination to worship in their own way, they always find a way from darkness to marvelous light.
For the parish the road has not always been easy, but through strong faith and those inspiring individuals who brought hope and an aesthetic beauty to many chaotic days, St. Joseph has continued to enjoy a vibrant tradition of generosity of spirit and relationship-building that honors Christ’s precept to “be a light in the world.”
