St. Joseph hosts at least two worship services each week. 8 am (in person only) is more traditional. 11am (in person and live-streamed) is more contemporary. During special times of year (eg, Advent and Lent) we typically also host a mid-week worship on Wednesday evening. Our website is www.stjosephame.org.

What is the community like?
St. Joseph’s members are some of the most loving, welcoming and personable people you’ll ever meet. Pastor Jay calls them, “The best church this side of Heaven!”

What if I'm not a Christian?
We are a welcoming community that is grounded in Christian tradition, but focused on social justice and civic engagement. ALL people are welcome at St. Joseph.
