We offer a comprehensive program of Faith Formation Classes for ages Kindergarten through adult, including sacramental preparation for Eucharist (First Holy Communion), Reconciliation (Confession), and Confirmation. We also offer special sessions, resources, and faith formation programs throughout the year, designed to help strengthen the faith life of the individual and whole family. Through our programs, we hope that St. Joseph’s Community will come to a fuller and richer experience of the presence of God in their lives and grow in their mission of being Christ’s disciples in our world.
