DONATE ONLINE NOW!

Many contributors no longer write checks

except to the church, so online giving is a

solution that allows them to give at their

convenience even if they are sick or on

vacation. You can set up and manage one-

time or recurring donations through our

website: www.stjosephcc.net. Click the

icon at the bottom of the homepage to

begin the registration process. The flexible payment options allow you to make pay-

ments directly from your checking/savings

account or you can use any major credit

card. If you have any questions, please

contact the Parish Office.

A New Year brings new blessings and

challenges. Please prayerfully include your

continued Weekly Contributions to our

parish home among your New Year Reso-

lutions. Your support remains essential to our ability to meet our current financial

challenge and operating expenses.

As we begin 2016 with grateful hearts for

all our blessings, let us prayerfully continue

to offer our contributions to honor God and

sustain our parish home -- our sacred place

where we gather together to Worship,

Study and Serve.

Many thanks for your generous response to

God and our parish.

May God bless you and yours abundantly

this New Year. Your St. Joseph Pastoral Council, Finance

Committee & Stewardship Committee

THE BAPTISM OF THE LORD JANUARY 10, 2016

THE COLUMBIAN SQUIRES is open to

Catholic young men ages 10-18. The

Squires conduct programs to benefit the

Church and community as well as recrea-

tional and social activities. For information call or text Chief Squire Martin David at

(469) 233-7569 or Chief Counselor Kevin

Quinn at (214) 578-2662. Sunday, January

10—meeting at 1:30 p.m., Room 125PC

THE PEWS ARE COMING!

The new pews will be delivered in January.

The purchase of the pews was made possi-

ble by your generous donations to the “Our

Faith~Our Future” Bishop’s Capital Cam-

paign. As the pledge payments are made,

30% is distributed back to St. Joseph for its approved philanthropic purposes. Our dis-

tributions have already made it possible to

install the security doors in the classroom

wings and security cameras throughout the

building. The funds have also paid for some

skylight and roof repairs. This 30% is re-

stricted funds meaning it can only be used

for the specific items listed in our plan set

at the beginning of the Capital Campaign

and must go through a funds distribution

approval process before they are released. The purchase of the pews and these other

improvements would not otherwise be pos-

sible without the “Our Faith~Our Future”

campaign.

Dr. William Tiller and explore the positive role that the new

discoveries in physics & medicine have on

our quest for wisdom.

A few questions for thought. Where should I be buried? Will my

family know what to do when I die? When should these decisions

be made? Can Catholics be cremated? Taking time now to plan for

your burial can be a relief to you and your loved ones. A niche in our Columbarium

can provide that comforting answer. To

learn more about this option contact the Par-

ish Office at (972) 231-2951. A payment

plan is available to registered parishioners.
