Happy Village: Our Faith - Our Future

In the 3 1/2 years since being named a parish, St. Joseph Parish has seen "extraordinary growth" with church membership increasing by over 300%. Due to this explosive growth, the Parish leadership, with input from the entire Parish Community, made the decision to go forward with a Capital Campaignto raise funds in order to build a new sanctuary, as well as an education wing to enhance our facilities for years to come.

Our St. Joseph "spirit" of deep and rich faith will continue to flourish as a gift to the future through our children and grandchildren.

Our challenge and our opportunity is to hand on our faith to the wider community by drawing upon our strength of the past to focus on our gift to the future.

For this Capital Campaign, our Preliminary Goal of $1.5 million will allow us to construct the sanctuary, restrooms, and common areas of the building (without furnishing).

Our Challenge Goal of $3 million will allow us to add some classrooms and partially furnish the project.

Our Celebration Goal of $4 million will allow us to incorporate all of the needs described - the construction and furnishing of the entire project.

If we surpass our celebration goal these funds will be used to renovate the current education building to house Parish offices and to renovate the present church building for a large group gathering/meeting space.

If you are interested in helping us achieve these goals, please call the Parish Office at (601) 856-2054.
