On Saturday/Sunday, June 4/5, 2016, St. Joseph Parish will have a Ministry Fair in our Parish. The Purpose of this activity is to renew our Parish Ministries. When we renew Church Ministries we "Rebuild the Church"
LET US CALL TO MIND THE BEGINNING OF OUR LIFE IN THE CHURCH When we were baptized and became members of the Church, we were anointed into the Mission of the Church, the Mission of Christ. The Church prayed: "He now anoints you with the Chrism of Salvation. As Christ was anointed Priest, Prophet and King, so may you live as a member of His body, sharing everlasting life." Our mission, the mission of the Church, is the mission of Christ: PROPHET - To proclaim God's Word, evangelize people and make them disciples PRIEST - To praise God, celebrating the Christian Mystery and Sacraments KING - to live the life in Christ and serve To fulfill this Mission, the Church developed different Ministries. Three of the fundamental Ministries are: TEACHING THE FAITH CELEBRATING THE FAITH LIVING THE FAITH We have added a fourth fundamental Ministry in our Ministry Fair booklet: GOVERNING - Finances and Maintenance Our Ministry Fair is an invitation to you to activate the promises of your Baptism by sharing your TIME AND TALENT ant to once more become an active member of the Church.
