One Baptism. One Faith. These are the things which define the people of Saint Joseph Parish. Our large crucifix (27 feet) reminds us continually that we are to die to Jesus Christ. The large, opening shroud around it reminds us of the Resurrection and the joy that service to each other and the community brings to us. We are a community of close to 840 households and over 3, 000 members. It is a family parish that spans the generations from newborns to great-great-grandparents. We have a strong and vibrant school of 400 students K-8. The buildings seem to never sleep as they are constantly filled with activities and volunteers.
