Welcome to St. Joseph Parish
God, Protector of His People.
A song of ascents. Those who put their trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion, which cannot be shaken but stands fast forever. As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the Lord surrounds his people both not and forevermore. The scepter of the wicked will not prevail over the land allotted to the righteous, so that the righteous will not be tempted to turn their hands to evil. Do good, O Lord, to those who are good, to those who are upright of heart. But the Lord will assign to the ranks of the evildoers those who turn their hearts to wickedness.
May peace be granted to Israel.Psalm 125: 1-5

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, As we leave the month of May, dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary, we now move into June, the month dedicated to the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus. As the home is referred to as the domestic church, there is a custom to have homes & families consecrated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. To have the enthronement of an image of the Sacred Heart has been a popular Catholic devotion over the years. . . Click on the image to read the complete message.Read More -

Prayer to St. Joseph
Pope Francis announced a Year of St. Joseph, in honor of the 150th anniversary of the saint’s proclamation as patron of the Universal Church. The Year extends from December 8, 2020 to December 8, 2021.
Pope Francis said he was establishing the year so that “every member of the faithful, following his example, may strengthen their life of faith daily in the complete fulfillment of God’s will.”
PRAYER TO SAINT JOSEPH
Dear Guardian of our Redeemer and Husband of the Virgin Mary, God entrusted His Son to you, Mary placed her trust in you, with your paternal figure, Christ became an adult man. Blessed Joseph be a Father for us and teach us and guide us in the way of life. Give us grace, mercy, and courage, and protect us from every evil. Amen.
ORACION A SAN JOSE
“Salve, custodio del Redentor y esposo de la Virgen María. A ti Dios confió a su Hijo, en ti María depositó su confianza, contigo Cristo se forjó como hombre. Oh, bienaventurado José, muéstrate, padre también a nosotros y guíanos en el camino de la vida. Concédenos
gracia, misericordia y valentía, y defiéndenos de todo mal.” Amen. -
