We are resuming the opportunity for Adoration, starting Friday, February 26. We will hold it each Friday during Lent, from 9 AM-5 PM.

The Parish Council announces their annual St. Joseph Award in honor of our patron, St Joseph, and on the occasion of the Solemnity in his honor, March 19.

We invite all to nominate men and women of the Parish who exemplify some of the virtues of St Joseph in the daily life of our community: joy, generosity, servant leadership and spirit of initiative.

Want to have the perfect Lenten sacrifice this year? Just pray and fast for an end to abortion. Even better is to join other parishioners praying for one hour each Saturday morning during this 40 Days Spring Campaign, at Lawrenceville’s Planned Parenthood.

Come join others who sacrifice on one or more Saturday mornings during Lent (Feb 27, Mar 6,13, 20 and 27 )  to pray and be witnesses for life at the Planned Parenthood in Lawrenceville. (798 Lawrenceville-Suwanee Rd.) Transportation leaves from our St. Joseph parking area in front of the Parish Office as soon as our 8:30 Mass has concluded on each of these Saturdays.

If you missed seeing “Unplanned” when it was in theatres in Athens, a generous parishioner shared some DVDs of it that may be borrowed from our Parish Office. If ever you wondered what happens at a Planned Parenthood, Abby Johnson, a former Planned Parenthood director, exposes it all.

Under the Safe Environment guidelines, parishes are required to offer VIRTUS Classes for all persons working with children. We are in need of facilitators to lead these classes here at St. Joseph. Once trained, you are only required to facilitate a class four times a year at your convenience. Won’t you consider giving to our Parish in this special way?

Four training sessions have been scheduled for 2021 to train facilitators for VIRTUS Protecting God’s Children.  Simply pick the one you can attend.

The 2021 dates are as follows:

• · April 30 and May 1
• · July 20 and 21
• · October 21 and 22
