- Fr. Mario's WEEKLY Bulletin Message (OCTOBER 2, 2022)
  
  Dear St. Joseph Family,
  As schools kick it into high gear, and our Faith Formation program gets going again, I am filled with immense sense of gratitude to God. I am thinking specifically about our catechists. We have been blessed with some extraordinary volunteers who lead the faith formation program, from the little kids to the teens. If there is one issue that causes pastors to stress, it is finding good volunteers to be catechists; our Director of Faith Formation, Anne Marie might agree. But God has been so good. This year we have some returning catechists for the kids’ faith formation: Molly Rodgers, Melanie Lee, Phyllis Jones, Ka Kay Achacoso, Janice Craig, Thanh Chang. And we also have some new ones Fabiola Macias-Tellez and Cecile de la Cruz. Thank you all!
