Our Ministries We are one body and community in Christ and it is our goal to bring our parishioners together through the stewardship program of sharing time, talent, and treasure. It is desire to make our church an inviting, joyful, and prayerful place to worship. To make these happen, we encourage our parishioners to share their time and tales and be part of at least one ministry.

Offertory Program Todo lo que hacemos aquí en la Iglesia San Jose se hace por el amor a Dios. Esto puede parecer obvio, pero ¿refl exionamos sobre eso lo sufi ciente? Hay mucho que hacer para mantener una parroquia en funcionamiento: administrar los sacramentos; proporcionar ministerios y programas; atendiendo a los necesitados, a los enfermos y al sufrimiento; cuidando el edifi cio y la propiedad. A veces podemos caer víctima de olvidar por qué estamos aquí. Podemos olvidar que somos una familia de creyentes, unidos en el amor de Dios, que estamos trabajando y esforzándonos por ser discípulos fi eles de Jesucristo. ¡Pero esto es lo que somos! Y es el amor de Dios el que nos une, sabiendo que Su Hijo nos mandó que “se amen unos a otros como yo los he amado” (Jn 15: 12, Biblia Latinoamericana). Cuando mantenemos esa misión a la vanguardia de nuestros pensamientos, palabras y acciones, todo cae en su lugar. Este es el corazón de lo que hacemos aquí en la Iglesia San Jose, y es una gran bendición poder compartir esta misión con ustedes. Es unido en el amor de Dios que ofrecemos nuestro tiempo, talento y tesoro para edifi car el reino de Dios. Lo hacemos por: • Orar por otros y participar en la vida sacramental de la Iglesia. • Servirse unos a otros, especialmente a los más vulnerables. • Cuidar a los enfermos y a los que sufren. • Crecer más profundamente en la vida de fe. • Y difundir las buenas nuevas de Jesucristo a todos. Para vivir nuestra misión, necesitamos que todos los feligreses de San José se unan. Todo lo que tenemos es un regalo de Dios, así que debemos devolverle a Él generosamente. Esto es amor en acción. Pedimos que los feligreses de San Jose consideren con espíritu de oración hacer un regalo fi nanciero a nuestra parroquia para ayudarnos a avanzar en esta misión más crítica. Como familia unida en el amor de Dios, podemos hacer mucho más juntos que separados. Ningún regalo es demasiado pequeño, y estoy muy agradecido de antemano por su generosidad. Mientras trabajamos juntos para llevar concretamente el Amor de Dios a un mundo muy necesitado de él, oro que permanezcan en el Amor de Dios, y que su alegría sea completa. Por favor, oren por mí también. En Cristo, P.

Faith Formation Catholic Faith formation primarily focuses on deepening initial conversion to faith. It incorporates catechetical, liturgical, and pastoral ministries. Religious Education We recall the statement made by the Second Vatican Council, "Holy Mother Church must be concerned with the whole of man's life, even the secular part of it insofar as it has a bearing on his heavenly calling. Therefore she has a role in the progress and development of education." (Gravissimum Educationis, Preface) Education remains critically important in the formation of the human person by teaching how to live well now so as to be able to live with God for all eternity. Youth Ministry “I want every young person in our Diocese to discover the new life that comes from Christ and to experience the grace of belonging to His Body, the Church. We must make sure that all our young people feel at home in the Church where they are loved with Christ’s love and learn to live their faith with joy. We need our young people to be missionary disciples and to give new energy to the Church!” -Bishop Kevin C. Rhoades Young Adult We invite young adults in their 20s and 30s to encounter Christ in each other and in His Church. Wherever you are at in life, we are with you and for you. Adult Faith Formation The Church's catechetical mission aims to help the faithful of all ages to grow in both human and Christian maturity, enriching the whole of life with the leaven of the Gospel. Consequently, appropriate goals and content will embrace all the faith dimensions of an adult life—for example, understanding and communicating the faith, skills needed for personal growth, the experience of family life, relationships, public service, and concern for the common good. Quinceanera The quinceañera ritual is valuable for the religious message it sends not only to young people, but also to parents, grandparents, godparents and the entire parish in calling them to prayerfully join with youth in making a commitment to God and the Church. Becoming Catholic The RCIA, which stands for Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults, is a process through which non-baptized men and women enter the Catholic Church. It includes several stages marked by study, prayer and rites at Mass. Participants in the RCIA are known as catechumens.
