Once again this year, St. Joseph Parish will host Project Homeless Connect on the fourth Thursday in January. This is a national day of care for the homeless that provides services for individuals and families who live in poverty. Our parish has hosted this event for several years as a way to answer our Catholic call to help those in need.
Service providers will gather in the Parish Hall on Thursday, January 29, 2026, and provide opportunities for dental and health care, haircuts, meetings with social service providers, and other services that people who live in poverty cannot typically afford.
We also have a school-wide Student Service Project in support of Homeless Connect. January 12, we begin our service project by collecting hygiene supplies for Homeless Connect guests. This is an opportunity for our students to live out their faith and to care for those in our community who are less fortunate. Listed below are the items we are providing and what your grade level is assigned.
We may face some traffic challenges around drop-off at the beginning of the school day as event set up is finalized and guests begin arriving for the event in Marian Hall at 9am. We need additional parking lot supervision and campus patrols throughout the day. Sign up here.
