Saint Joseph Parish first ever Town Hall Meeting was held on Friday, September 25, 2015. About 125 people attended including parishioners and staff. Several parishioners had questions for Father ST (These are the continuation of these questions and answers):
Q: Can the cross be in a more prominent place on the altar? A: There are crosses both on the right and the left of the altar. It was moved because we are people of the resurrection and the center should be the altar then the tabernacle. The angels adore and glorify Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament.
Q: What will be the function of the parish council? A: All councils in the Catholic Church are advisory/consultative bodies and are there to help the pastor make informed decisions about the parish.
Q: Can we put the cross back in the center until a cross is hung? A: That is not going to happen because of the reasons detailed above.
Q: Can we do more to teach the theology of the angels to the children? A: We will put an explanation in the bulletin for everyone.
Q: What is being done about the paint in the church which is flaking and not in good repair? A: I am looking into it along with cleaning the murals and any other repairs that need to be done with
scaffolding. Father then commented on the following topics:
Parish Council: There will be elections of 10-12 parishioners who would like to be part of this
consultative body of people for Father as his “eyes and ears” of the parish to assist in being good
stewards of time and resources.
Finance Council/Trustee: Father would like to add a few members to the Finance Council and
add one more Trustee to the parish. If you have any financial background or expertise, please email
or contact Father.
Moving of Offices: Beginning in October, the parish offices will be moved to 22 Halsted Street.
The Annex: due to the exceptional amount of money needed to refurbish this property, Father is
thinking about tearing it down and replacing it with modular office space.
Historical Register: Father is looking into having our church placed on the local and national
historical register.
Saint Joseph Regional School: Father has committed the parish to giving an additional
$10,000 to help support our school and has already saved $10,000 by renegotiating the trash
removal contact. ….more to follow…..
