Support for our Church extends to supporting the principles of our faith. One way we do that is by reminding our parishes and the community to "Keep Christ in Christmas" theme to combat the rampant commercialism of the season through our annual Keep Christ In Christmas program, reminding people that Christmas is above all a holy day celebrating the birth of Christ.
We offer additional ideas for encouraging that theme in the flyer available by clicking the Keep Christ in Christmas image on this page.

Food for Families Program
Lenten Suppers
|
Each year during Lent, council members host a Pasta Supper at St. Joseph Church to encourage families to attend the Stations of the Cross that follows the supper.
The Pasta Supper is also the kickoff for the council's annual Baby Shower that solicits gifts from parishioners that are then donated to the area's two women's pregnancy resource centers. |

Family Week Cookouts - Our council organizes an annual cookout with the much-appreciated assistance of the St. Joseph Parish Hospitality Committee to show the parishioners of St. Joseph Church that families are the backbone of communities and our Order.
