The Rescue Project is an experience of the gospel surrounded by conversation, food and prayer that seeks to proclaim the gospel in a compelling and attractive way over eight weeks in a small group format. This experience is imbued with beauty, authentic humanity, and accompaniment. This event is open to anyone and everyone (7th Grade and up)! Whether you’ve been walking with Jesus for years, or only see Jesus as a figure in ancient history, you are welcome. Best of all, this is FREE to attend!

Reservations are due by Thursday, September 4. Reservation sheets are available on the reference table by the Great Room or in the Parish Center
MEN OF SAINT JOSEPHWednesday Mornings · 6:00 to 7:00am · Great RoomMen from our parish meet weekly to share and support one another in deepening and living our Catholic faith. All men are invited and encouraged to join us! We’re currently reading and discussing the book BeDADitudes: 8 Ways to Be an Awesome Dad by Greg Popcak. Copies will be made available. No preregistration is needed.
PARISH ADULT CHOIR STARTING SOON! Our Adult Choir will begin rehearsals on Tuesdays from 7:00 to 8:30pm in the church. The choir will sing regularly for the 9:00am Sunday Mass, as well as for special liturgies throughout the year. The first “come and see” rehearsal will be on Tuesday, September 16. At this rehearsal, we’ll sightread together and begin working on a variety of music, including chant, traditional hymnody, polyphony, and contemporary sacred music. This evening is a chance to experience what choir is like, meet others, and prayerfully consider whether joining the choir is right for you. We’re especially in need of male voices, and encourage parishioners who enjoy singing to give choir a try. If you play an instrument, please also reach out to see if there may be a way to share your musical gifts with the parish. For more information, please contact Peter Brown, Director of Music, at 651.263.8433 or at [email protected].
