Construction has begun on the Poor Clare Sisters Monastery that will be located behind and just south of St. Joseph on Laredo Road. GCI for more than 29 years, has provided construction services that top builders have used to help launch their projects and keep them under budget and on time. We know the ins and outs of construction like no one else, and our knowledge can make the difference between a successful project and a costly one.
We are insured and currently carries licenses in the following counties in Colorado: Pueblo, Alamosa, Fremont, Trinidad, and Walsenburg.
Below are current pictures of the construction taking place which expects to be completed in the next five to six months.

'In the name of God, stop this massacre': Pope Francis on Ukraine
The following video is courtesy of The Guardian
Dear Parishioners,
As a Community of St. Joseph, we are devastated by the recent events in Ukraine. Let us join the world in prayer. We turn to God for guidance and direction, and prayer that you look over the people of Ukraine. Give them strength and courage during this difficult time. We pray to you, oh God, for peace and a resolution to this conflict.
We pray for all the people of the Ukraine and we ask Our Blessed Mother and St. Joseph and St. Michael for Intercessions!
Jesus said to his Apostles:
“As you go, make this proclamation: ‘The Kingdom of heaven is at hand.’
Cure the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, drive out demons. Without cost you have received; without cost, you are to give.
Do not take gold or silver or copper for your belts;
No sack for the journey, or a second tunic, or sandals, or walking stick. The labourer deserves his keep.
– Matthew 10:7-15, Luke 9:1-6, Mark 6:7-13

Our bible study class will be looking at Chapter 28 in this in-depth Study of the Gospel according to Matthew.
This week's Bible Study will be last one until after the holidays. We will start back up at 6:30 p.m., on Monday January 6, 2025, and Tues., Jan. 7, 2025, at 1 p.m.
Come and grow in your knowledge and understanding of Jesus and our Catholic faith through this great study of Sacred Scripture. The study will take us through the whole of Salvation History and tie all things together, showing the great continuity of the Old Testament and the New. It will help us to understand why we believe what we believe and why we do what we do as Catholics especially the Eucharist and other sacraments.

The Chalice for Vocations ministry was developed to promote fervent and devotional prayer for an increase in vocations to the priesthood and religious life. These specific intentions are raised as the chalice travels within the parish community.
A prayer guide is provided and geared for readers that are young or old. Spontaneous and personal prayers for vocations are always acceptable and welcome also. Please incorporate prayers for an increase in vocations within your prayer life.
If you would like to receive the Chalice for Vocations for a week, please contact the parish office at 719-544-1886. Thank you. Be confident that your prayers are heard.

The Knights of Columbus (KOC) of St. Joseph (#9456) have introduced a new program called "The Holy Family"
We are inviting parishioners of any household to consecrate themselves to the Holy Family. Each week the parishioner will take the sanctuary of the Holy Family into their homes for one week of daily prayer. At the end of your week, you will bring back the sanctuary to the church for the next family.
Click the pictures below for larger view.
Attention parishioners, those who currently have taken home the Holy Family (Coros Program), please be sure to bring it back to the sacristy on the Saturday/Sunday after you received it so we can present it to another family at the next mass. Thank You!
Get yours today!
From the Congregation of the Sisters of St. Joseph of Carondelet
O Prince of Peace,
We pray for the people of Ukraine this day.
May conflict cease and peace be restored.
May those in power soon find ways of peace.
God of peacemakers
Teach us the ways of peace.
Come and show us
how to beat our swords into plowshares,
tools of life instead of instruments of fear.
Strip us of all strategies of conquest,
Make our hearts alive
to your movement toward peace
with our dear neighbor.
We pray for the people of Ukraine this day.
Amen.
