Planning for the 2021 St. Joseph Parish Summer Celebration to be held on 8/13 and 8/14 has begun.   We are in need of chairpersons for our Sponsor and Bid-N-Buy positions.  These need to be filled before we can move forward and hold the event.   Please contact Matt Zeck at [email protected] to volunteer.  This is a very important event to supply necessary funds for the support of our missions including our school and religious education programs to name just two.  Please consider volunteering for this St. Joseph tradition!
