Following their process of prayerful discernment, Steve and Pauline Labrecque have decided to relocate to Connecticut to be nearer their children and grandchildren.  They will be missed here at St. Joseph’s, where they have been long-term, faithful parishioners.  We have been blessed by their service to this worship community as Lector and Extraordinary Minister of Holy Communion, and we pray for your future happiness.  Know that we are always ready to welcome you with open arms whenever you visit the area!
