Living Fully, Planning Faithfully

A Catholic Guide to End-of-Life Ministry

Planning for the future can feel overwhelming—but it doesn’t have to be faced alone.

St. Joseph Parish is introducing Living Fully; Planning Faithfully: A Catholic Guide to End-of-Life Ministry, a new series designed to help individuals and families approach aging and end-of-life decisions with clarity, confidence, and faith.

The series will bring together trusted professionals and parish leaders to address the whole person—mind, body, and soul—with topics ranging from estate planning and financial considerations to senior health and living to the Church's teachings and offerings...and more. 

​

Join us for a kickoff event on Sunday, September 27, immediately following the 11:00 a.m. Mass in Noll Hall. You’ll meet the presenters, receive an overview of all topics, and learn about the monthly sessions beginning this Fall.

​

Whether you are planning for yourself, helping aging parents, or simply hoping to be better prepared, this series will offer compassionate, practical, and faith-centered guidance for the journey ahead.​
