AUGUST 7: Parking Lot Update

With only one full day of paving work remaining, all liturgical and office activities have returned to the church, effective August 8.  We will update if/when the final day of work/last layer of paving has been scheduled.  Thanks for the patience!

SUMMER NATIONAL FESTIVALS OF PATRONS

After wonderful celebrations of Mexican and Costa Rican Catholic faith, we have two more Marian events ahead: the evening Aug. 15 celebration of Mary’s Assumption (Guatemala) and Sept. 15 Our Lady of Sorrows (Slovakia) bi-lingual Masses.

PARISH CEMETERY TO NOW CLOSE at 2pm

Due to the brazen theft of the dumpster we use for maintenance and grave openings at our St. Joseph cemetery on Foothill Road, we will now close the gates each day at 2pm.  Thank you for your understanding.

SPECIAL MILESTONE MASSES

Do you have a daughter approaching her 15th birthday?  Celebrate here with a Quinceanera Mass. We also offer memorial Masses for loved ones and other Masses for selected family occasions. Contact our office for details.

Join Our Catholic Community

Rooted today in a sacred space inspired by the reforms of the Second Vatican Council, St. Joseph Catholic Community lives discerningly – amidst the current crises – in contemplative practice and justice-minded engagement of our multicultural membership.
