This Lent and Easter season, we remember Christ’s promise: "I am with you, always." Even as we rest in the comfort of His presence, this season invites a response. How will YOU be with Him this Lent? ICSJ offers many meaningful ways to live your response, from Ash Wednesday through Easter. CLICK HERE to view our Ash Wednesday schedule, sign up for early offerings, and explore opportunities to be with Christ!

Love to knit or crochet? KnitWits invites you to gather Monday, February 9, from 10:00am–1:00pm in the St. Joseph Community Room. Come for whatever time fits your schedule. Together, we knit and crochet baby blankets and hats for Children’s Place Association, supporting newborns whose parents are unable to care for them. KnitWits meets monthly (typically the third Monday) to work on projects, share patterns, and enjoy community. Questions? Email Kathy at kmust1@yahoo.com.

The next WWW Book Club meets on Friday, March 6th at 3:30 PM at the St. Joseph Church Parish Center. Our book selection is Anxious People by Fredrik Backman, a compassionate and often humorous novel that begins with a bank robbery gone wrong and unfolds into a story about fear, forgiveness, grace, and the unexpected ways imperfect people find connection and hope. To RSVP or with any questions, please email Colleen at cm.424.svdp@gmail.com or Martha at Martha_60603@yahoo.com.
