WELCOME TO SAINT JOSEPH CHURCH
Parish Mission Statement
To Enable Parishioners to Live Their Christian Vocation in the World.
Our Parish
The Catholic community of Saint Joseph is more than just friendly people, good homilies, and interesting activities. Most importantly, we gather around the person of Jesus Christ to worship God and live in the light of the Holy Spirit. The community of Saint Joseph comes together with the Holy Spirit at Mass, in the Sacraments, and in parish activities to pray, to celebrate joys, to mourn losses, to serve others, to provide support, and to receive strength for daily life. Our community recognizes the importance of walking with others toward the union with God.
Saint Joseph Parish is committed to the principles of stewardship and full lay-member participation in the life of the parish community. Saint Joseph Parish has many ministries to support parishioners as well as individuals and groups outside of our small community. We serve and offer support through our abundant ministries including: Liturgy, Human Concerns, Respect Life, Spiritual Enrichment, Religious Education, Sacramental Prep, and Community Services. We serve over 1750 Roman Catholic families in the Mendham area.
Dear Friends,
After hearing about our mission trip to Paintsville, Bishop Sweeney invited us to talk about it on his podcast. On Thursday, Lynne Connor, Hannah D'cruz, and I went to the diocesan offices to record the episode which you can watch: click here
or to listen to click here
We were honored to be able to share the story of our St. Joe's mission trip and to give the rest of the diocese an idea of the fruits of your hard work and sacrifice for the people we serve.
God bless you,
Mark Tosso
Youth Ministry Director
