A Warm Welcome
| I am pleased to present this Parish
Web-Site to you and our parish community. It is my hope
that you will use this as a Directory to understand
and access the different ministries and programs available
through our Parish family and the Archdiocese of Denver. A special
thank you to all of our parishioners who support St. Joseph Catholic Church
through their time, talent and treasure. It is your stewardship
and dedication that make the many ministries of the parish
a reality.
Through the intercession of St. Joseph, may you and your
families be blessed with the commitment to build an even
stronger faith community as we continue to be a caring
and nurturing presence to all we encounter!--------Fr. Joseph Monahan
