Thank you to everyone who donated and participated in this year's "Bowling for Babies" fundraiser for CareNet Pregnancy Center! The Parish Youth Council collected $165.00 and had a great time at Boutwell Bowling Alley on Sunday, Jan 19. Congratulations to Michelle Clark for the highest score in the parish and better luck next year to Chris Garcia, who earned recognition with the lowest score.
Our parish needs several adult volunteers to be representatives at the monthly YOUNG LIFE committee and prayer meetings. These monthly meetings are held on Thursday evenings at several of the committee members homes and also at St. Joseph’s Parish Center. YOUNG LIFE is a Christian based ministry bringing high school youth to Jesus Christ. Our parish continues to help support their efforts through encouragement and prayer. To learn more about YOUNG LIFE, please look for the link on our parish website. To volunteer, please call the rectory.
