St. Joseph Parish

Fall is finally in the air, and St. Joe's has so many programs for you and your family! OCIA and Faith Formation are in full swing, we are hosting Brother Jerome on Saturday for a Franciscan mini retreat, and our fall blood drive takes place on Sunday morning!

This weekend, in honor of St. Francis, we are holding our annual pet blessing Masses. Thank you to everyone who submitted a photo for this weekend's bulletin, I am 100% sure that St. Joe's has the cutest pets around. 😊

So excited for our parishioner Joan Bartman who is featured in On Mission! We have a copy of her book on the St. Joe's stained glass windows in our office.

Capturing the stories behind the glass - OnMissionMedia.com By Scott Cason | On Mission NEENAH, WI — Joan Bartman grew up in the Catholic Church with an appreciation for beautiful stained-glass windows, but one window set at St. Margaret Mary Church in Neenah was different. This one featured none of the deep reds and shimmering golds she was…

Congratulations to all of our couples celebrating a milestone wedding anniversary in 2026! May God continue to bless you as you grow in love together.

Faith Formation classes begin on Wednesday this week! Grades K-5 at 4:45pm and grades 6-10 at 6:30pm. Pizza social in between at 6:00pm in Holly Hall! Then don't forget to bring your pets to Mass this weekend at 4:00pm on Saturday or 10:00am on Sunday for a special blessing.

Congratulations to our students who were confirmed last Sunday during a Mass with Bishop Ricken! May God continue to bless you throughout your life, and may the Holy Spirit bring you guidance and conviction. We’re so proud of you!

Another week, another VERY FULL list of activities at St. Joe's! We are excited for OCIA to begin this week, as well as our Fall Bible Study. If you are celebrating a milestone wedding anniversary in 2026, please join us on Sunday for our annual Anniversary Mass!

Whew! I could barely fit all of this week's events on the page, and the office isn't even open on Monday!! Our annual Fall Festival is this weekend, and we can't wait to see you there!

Fall Festival can’t happen without your help! We still need volunteers to help grill, serve meals, supervise the kids’ games, run the dice game, and more!

Volunteers serve in three hour shifts. If you are a first-time volunteer, let us know when you sign up so we can train you! This is a great event for students to earn some service hours, or for families with older kids to serve together. Click the link in the comments to register online, or sign up after Mass this weekend!

Another busy week at St. Joe's! If you are headed in for Bingo on Tuesday, please note that Bingo will now be taking place upstairs and not in Holly Hall like usual. This weekend is also our monthly collection for the St. Joseph Food Program, and the food of the month for September is canned fruit!
