Mission Statement

We, the Men’s Group of St. Joseph’s community, have as our goal to foster the teachings of Christ and promote goodwill and camaraderie to each other.

Objectives

To achieve that goal we undertake the following objectives:
1. Support/sponsor various annual functions.
2. Provide an annual Scholarship Fund for continued education.
3. Provide monthly financial support for charitable projects in and beyond our community.
4. Promote spiritual growth by fostering an annual retreat.

Meetings

All men (18 years and older) are invited to our monthly meetings at 7:15 PM in the parish office basement on the fourth Tuesday of each month.  All events are in the bulletin or announced after Masses.  Anytime you can make it to help out at any events would be great!  All men of the parish are automatically members, there are no fees or dues for membership, so join.
