U.S.A. 250th Anniversary As the United States of America commemorates the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, in 2026, the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) joins this celebration by lifting up the contributions of Catholics and the impact of our faith on this country's history. In a historic moment, the U.S. Bishops will consecrate the United States to the Sacred Heart of Jesus on June 11, 2026, and invite all parishes to join this consecration. Our daily Mass at St Joseph on Friday, June 12th, will be for the Solemnity of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus. We invite as many people as possible to atten, patriotic attire would be appropriate. If you would like to pray the Novena of Our Nation in advance, here is a great resource: www.usccb.org/resources/novena-sacred-heart. Through the intercession of Blessed Mother Mary patroness of the Americas, St Joseph, and all Angels and Saints, may God Bless you, St. Joseph's, and our Nation.

Rosary Please take time and join us as we say the Rosary every Tuesday at 10:00am. The group Rosary is powerful and the benefits are endless. Let the simple and repeated prayers of the Rosary allow us to really focus on what Jesus did and said as we receive peace of mind, an increased love for Jesus, unity with our church and understand better the will of God in our lives. There is no better time than during Lent to embrace these mysteries and, with Mary's help, let them transform our lives.

Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity

 God is Love and Loving  God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him might not perish but might have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him will not be condemned, but whoever does not believe has already been condemned, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God. John 3:16–18

Reflect today on the Most Holy Trinity. We were made to share in Their Life and Love. Though the fullness of the Trinity remains a mystery beyond human grasp, it is not beyond human encounter. Through grace, revelation, and contemplative union, God draws us to Himself—not to explain Himself, but to be consumed by Him. Celebrate this day by repeatedly praying one of the most ancient and simple prayers of the Church:

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen! Most Holy Trinity, I love You and trust in You!
