We hold our annual Parish Carnival in August at St. Joseph Athletic Field on Wabank Road. Volunteers are needed for concession stands, setting up, and breaking down. Watch for information in the church bulletin. Come and join the Fun!

CCD/Religious Education
Children who don't attend Catholic school attend CCD every Sunday morning from 9:15 to 10:15 for their religious instruction. Volunteers are needed to serve as teachers, aides (who can be high school students), and office personnel. CCD lasts from September to the end of May. Approximately 30 hours of instruction time is required.

Children's Liturgical Happenings
Children's Liturgical Happenings are held each Sunday, September through April, during the 10:30 a.m. Mass. These sessions are for our preschool children ages 4, 5 & 6, and will be held in the CYO rooms across the hall from our infant and toddler nursery. Happenings is a Lectionary-based program, which means the sessions are based on The Sunday readings that we hear in Church but adapted for children. The program includes prayer, scripture, crafts, treats, and music.

Children's Liturgy of the Word
This program is for children ages 5 through 11. They are dismissed from the Sunday liturgy at the 10:30 a.m.Mass, following the Opening Prayer, and go to the Chapel to break open the scripture readings for the particular Sunday. The children are brought back during the collection. This is an opportunity for them to hear and understand the scriptures at their age level. It also starts them in the process of thinking about how those readings apply to their lives.
