Mass in honor of Blessed Pope John Paul II TODAY, Wednesday, October 23rd

Msgr. Williams will be celebrating a Mass in honor of Blessed Pope John Paul II on Wednesday, October 23rd at 7:30PM.  There is a glorious chapter in St. Joseph's history that involves Pope John Paul II. Some of our parishioners carried our cherished Icon to Rome where the Pope solemnly consecrated it. An image of Pope John Paul II still hangs near the Icon.

Our church also honors the Divine Mercy which is conspicuously in the devotional ornamentation of our church. Did not St. Saustina predict a spark rising out of Poland? We would invite parishioners of Polish ancestry to honor this great figure of world history and all can benefit from his intercessions on behalf of the church. Msgr. will give the meditations on the rosary beginning at 6:55PM. Always faithful,Rhonda Milkovich for Msgr. Williams
