The budget of the Diocese of Stockton for this year is $2,300,000 to cover expenses on education and formation of Seminarians, Deacons, Catechists, various Pastoral Ministries including immigrant services, etc. Every Parish of the Stockton Diocese contributes according their ability. St. Joseph Parish needs to raise $23,245. As of September 4, we have reached 81% of our assessment. Remember that every dollar you give is going to be used to build the Kingdom of God.
