Liturgical Ministry :: Celebration of the Eucharist
We, the members of Saint Joseph Parish, are a faith community which is centered in and through the Eucharist. This is the purpose, meaning and life of our Catholic faith. This is where the living body and blood of Christ nourishes and strengthens our life of faith. That is why family is the first and foremost place of spiritual formation for the individual. The parish community must work together developing and supporting all members in their Christian responsibilities, for nothing will replace the lived reality of Christian life and witness in each individual and family, it will only assist.
Our parish family life is where the catholic faith matures – where it is caught by example. The simplest of family rituals, such as prayer at mealtime or evening prayer for those in need – for the sick - the reading of a scripture passage, can and will create an atmosphere where Christ will be found. But most especially, it will be found at the regular commitment to Sunday Mass which weaves Christ into our weekly fabric of life. If you have not participated in Sunday celebration of the Eucharist or have not received the Holy Eucharist in a long time, this is an opportunity for you to re-evaluate your relationship with Christ and his church – and begin anew. Christ will use the rhythm of your life to love you and invite you to a deeper love with him.
We are all called to teach about Christ and help each other to form and deepen our relationship with Christ and the Church. This invitation is to challenge each of us to live and grow in our faith.
