Lenten Mission 2012

Lenten Mission: A Lenten Pilgrimage with Jesus

Find your "holy place" this Lent by joining St. Joseph on the Rio Grande for our annual mission from March 12 - March 15, 2012. Focus on the meaning of Lent and find that special place for yourself. All parishioners, families and friends are invited.

Feed the Hungry

Let’s feed the multitudes as Jesus did! The Loaves & Fish Ministry will be resuming its collection of non-perishable foods for the less fortunate starting December 31. We ask that each parishioner bring one non-perishable food item per week. For the months of January through March the Ministry suggests the following items: Rice, Beans and Cereal. The non-perishable foods can be placed in the blue bins marked with the Loaves & Fish symbols.

Friday Family Rosary

The next Friday Family Rosary hosted by the Knights of Columbus will be on December 9th. It will be a recurring event on the second Friday of each month. Each month will have a different theme. Please join us.

Parish Office closed for staff meeting

The parish office will be closed for staff meetings at 8:30am on the first Wednesday of the month. The office will reopen at 10:30am.

Persons with Disabilities

Did you know?

One in five persons in the United States lives with a disability. How many persons do you know who fit that description? How many of these people with disabilities do you see in our parish? How many do you see active in doing ministries in our parish? The Persons with Disabilities Ministry is working to invite more persons with disabilities to minister.

We invite you to join and use your talent. Deacon Bert Dohle is the chairman and he would be happy to speak with you or your family. His phone number is 505.836.0899. This worthwhile ministry meets the second Monday of the month from 7:00 pm to 8:30 pm and usually in the parish office conference room.

What's New?

The Disability Ministry will not meet during December, nor will it sponsor the scheduled Activity Day on Dec. 11. Instead all those who are physically or mentally challenged, blind, hard of hearing, their families, friends and caregivers are invited to register for and attend the Wings Ministry Retreat and Posada hosted by Risen Savior Parish at their Marian Center Gathering Hall, at 7701 Wyoming Blvd., NE on Sunday, Dec. 11 from 2:00 to 7:00 p.m. This includes a Christmas reflection and special Posada Mass followed by a traditional Posada dinner and caroling.

The registration deadline is December 1st.......with a $5. fee. Mail check and registration to the Office of Pastoral Outreach, 4000 St. Joseph Pl NW, Albuquerque NM 87120.

For questions call: 831-8174 The registration form asks for your name, phone number, address, parish, email, and special needs.

Did you know that...

Our church was built to be inclusive for all parishioners?

We are blessed to have special seating for persons with disabilities.

We've included a special place where you may worship with your companions and family members around you. Please look for the pews with indented spaces. The easy access indented spaces are for those with canes, wheel chairs or walkers. Other parishioners will be leaving those spaces for you, your family, and friends so that you may join us in prayer and worship.
