Church of St. Joseph

Unfortunately, COVID-19 has come to the parish. Msgr. Vogan was diagnosed last week and is on the road to recovery. Please continue to keep him in your prayers. The rest of the parish priests and staff are healthy and staying safe. As a result the parish office will be closed to traffic. PARISH OFFICE: If you have a need or would like to purchase mass or gift cards, you can call the parish office between 10AM and 1PM by calling 610-497-3340 (please leave a message with phone number if the machine picks up) or email stjoseph256@comcast.net and we can arrange for contactless exchange at your convenience.  DAILY MASS: As a result of this necessity, Daily Masses will not be celebrated publicly in our parish until after December 14th.  VIGIL & SUNDAY MASSESS: The Saturday Vigil and Sunday morning Masses will be celebrated publicly.  CONFESSION: Confessions will be heard on Saturdays as usual from 4:00-4:45PM, however we will not hear Confessions on Sundays at this time. The church will remain open for visits and quiet prayer, but no Daily Mass will be celebrated.  All Daily Mass Intentions will be honored privately. PARISH FACILITIES: The parish facilities will be closed until the end of December. The reality for our parish is an unfortunate eventuality, but one that cannot be ignored. We will follow the CDC protocol and guidelines. We believe that is necessary in order to ensure that we are continuing to do the best we can in response to the pandemic and for the safety of our parishioners.
