They are like trees planted by streams of water, which yield their fruit in its season, and their leaves do not wither. In all that they do, they prosper.
Psalm 1:3 (NRSV)
St. Joseph's is a church on the way; we are rooted in faith, grounded in the community, and looking towards our future. We are committed to love, discipleship and service which strengthen families and communities. St. Joseph's offers companionship in Christ, and in community, as you move through each stage of life’s journey.

The Tree of Life Fund was created to furnish the new St. Joseph's Episcopal Church following the demolition of our old building. The fund will finance and maintain the altar, pulpit, seating, an organ and sound system, and other items.
about
A Tree of Life wall sculpture will be installed in the new Church building to recognize those who contributed. It is a wonderful opportunity to memorialize lost loved ones, honor achievements, or make a commitment in honor of a special occasion. An artisan crafted bronze sculpture, it is intended to be a permanent symbol dedicated to enrich the lives of those who worship and serve at St. Joseph’s.
