PARISH OFFICE: The office will be open to the public beginning Monday, August 31 with a return to our regular schedule.  The office will be open from 9am-5pm on Monday through Thursday and 9am-4pm on Friday.  If you cannot make it to the office during those hours, please call or email.  Personnel from the parish office will be checking emails and voicemails for messages. We will return any messages left within 24-72 hours.  Whenever possible, please try to pre-arrange visits. Masks are requested when visiting the office.

Congratulations, Fr. Ketteler.  We are now able to call him "Monsignor Ketteler". This great honor is being conferred by Pope Francis at the request of Bishop Foys to recognize priests who have distinguished service and ministry to the Church.  Fr. Ketteler has done just that in his 59 years of service to this Diocese ranging from his early work in campus ministry at the University of Kentucky and Eastern Kentucky University to his current assignment at Thomas More University as Associate Professor and Chairperson of the Theology Department.  Since 1982 he has served here at St. Joseph Church, and he continues to contribute his insightful articles to The Messenger. (See the article in The Messenger, August 21, 2020.)

Congratulations, Monsignor Ketteler!

While we are still in the midst of the COVID-19 situation, we have opened additional seating in Noll Hall to accommodate the social distancing protocols.  If anyone would like to view the mass from Noll Hall, you will also be able to receive Holy Communion as one of the clergy members will bring the Eucharist to you in the Hall.  If you have any questions when you get to the church, please contact one of the ushers.

Click here for the revised certificate order form.  While we are limiting the available choices, there are still many of your favorites on the list:  Wendy's; Target; Amazon; Burger King; Bed, Bath & Beyond; Kremer's Market; and many, many more.

Please email your order to [email protected], print off the order form and drop it off in the collection on the weekend, or slip it in the key slot at the Parish Office.  We will see to it that your order is processed, and, upon completion of the order, we will contact you to make pickup arrangements.
