We have recently added some significant and exciting initiatives :
-
- a) CACOYA: [Carroll County Young Adults] at St. Joseph. A group of twenty somethings, and there are about twenty of them (!), which meets at the parish on certain Thursdays for fellowship and formation. Their next gathering is Thursdays at 7 p.m. in the Youth Center.
-
- b) Pizza and Play: A gathering of couples and young children who meet in parishioner’s homes one Friday a month. The dynamic involves getting to know and support each other and encouragement in faith.
- c) The Wild Goose: A monthly gathering on a Thursday evening involving wine, cheese, and a wild goose! This event, held at a parishioner’s home, gathers couples in their 20’s, 30’s and 40’s, and progresses through org’s “The Wild Goose” program.
The following events for formation and fellowship are coming soon. If you’re not already involved, please join in.
-
- Family Religious Education Gatherings: For the second time this December, we will bring families together during one of the usual Religious Education times, so the whole family unit can be involved in the dynamic of sharing faith and being together.
