Mission
"Ignited by the Eucharist to Love & Serve"
Our Process So FarIn 2009, the community at St. Joseph came together to formulate a mission statement by which we capture the essence of our hopes and the call we have received.
Ignited by the Eucharist to love and serve, grounds our community in the heart of the Church—in the sacraments—yet also points us outward, toward the transformation of our world.
In 2010 we have explored what it means for us “to love and serve” as a Eucharistic people. This process of discerning conversation—produced a Vision Statement.
In 2011 Our work has produced a draft set of Goals. The conversations between parishioners and the discernment teams developed a two pronged approach. First, by naming our common values and expectations for ourselves and each other in a convenent of community. Second, by setting a structure for supporting and sustaining our covenent. Please review the entire draft.
In the fall of 2011 Fr. John launched the idea of being a covenanted community, asking parishioners to consider making a covenant with each other. The Covenant is here and an explanation of covenant is here.
