Adult Initiation (RCIA) -- group on Monday evenings
Throughout the year, individuals come forward seeking to learn more about the Catholic faith. You may have a friend who is Catholic… you may be dating, engaged, or married to a Catholic…or you may just be seeking information on your own. You may have even been baptized a Catholic but never completed your initiation.

If you are such a seeker, we welcome you. The St. Joseph’s community invites you to have a look at the adult initiation process here at the parish with the hope that you will find an opportunity to grow closer to God at this time in your faith journey. The adult initiation process is a process of prayer, reflection, and learning that allows for the continual discernment of God’s will in our lives. No matter where you are on your faith journey, there is a place for you at St. Joseph’s.

You’re Invited: Faith Sharing Group – Fall Session

Are you looking for a welcoming place to grow in faith, reflect on Scripture, and share the journey with others? Our Faith Sharing Group will begin its fall session on Monday evenings from September 14 to October 26 in the chapel, using the Serendipity New Testament for Groups. (Please note there will be no meeting on Thanksgiving Monday, October 12.) This small group offers an open, supportive, and informal setting where each person's faith story is valued. Whether you have participated before or are considering joining for the first time, you are warmly welcome.

For more information or to confirm your attendance (optional) please contact the front office, or find the group leader's contact information in our most recent Bulletin.

The Sunday evening 7pm Mass is geared towards the University community and other young adults; but all are welcome. This is a contemplative Mass with lower lights, a quiet atmosphere, times of silence, and inspiring music. Students and young adults take on the roles of all the liturgical ministries.
Have you been waiting for the University Mass to return? Join us on Sunday, August 30 at 7pm!
