Everyone who cares about the Church is encouraged to participate in the Synod. Pope Francis wants to hear from those who feel marginalized or hurt by their Catholic experience, as well as from those who have found joy and mercy in the Church. During the synodal sessions, we will listen to each other and invite the Holy Spirit to open our hearts to feel the love, joy and pain of those whose experience is different from our own. Catholics throughout the world will be discerning the same questions. St. Joseph the Worker is offering four productive listening sessions for our Parish where together, we will listen to the Holy Spirit, share what is on our hearts and most importantly, listen to each other. We encourage our parishioners to attend a session if you are able. Click on this announcement to learn more.
