Ministry of Prayer
Ministers of Prayer commit themselves to include the needs of the parish
in their daily prayer. A monthly letter with prayers, reflections,
thoughts and special needs is distributed to all who participate in this
ministry. If you are interested in learning more about this
ministry, you may
contact
parish@churchstjoseph.org
Prayer Corner
If you, or someone you know, is in need of prayers, please contact the parish office at parish@churchstjoseph.org. (Leaving a name grants permission to place it on the list for distribution to Ministers of Prayer, to have it read at Mass, and to allow a follow-up call or visit to the sick person.)
Ministry to the Sick and Dying
The Church offers a wide variety of ministries to the sick and the dying. Those unable to attend the community Eucharist can have communion ministers bring the Eucharist to their homes. Those suffering from a serious illness that limits them physically or emotionally can receive the Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick. For these ministries or arrangements for funeral services contact Fr.
Joseph Feders, OSB at
pastor@churchstjoseph.org or call 363-7505, ext. 122.
Social Ministry
The Social Ministry Committee oversees parish involvement with contributing to charity, with parish volunteering in social service agencies, and with social action. Catholic Social Teaching urges Christians to participate in the building up of the Kingdom of God by asserting that we are judged not by our successes but by the state of the poorest and most vulnerable in our midst. Christians have a responsibility to work toward the Dignity of all human beings because justice is a constitutive dimension of the gospel.
