The Gift of Knowing Jesus Christ

The goal of Religious Education at St. Joseph's is to support your relationship with God who is Father, Son and Holy Spirit. In this section you will find resources and information to live Catholic Stewardship by increasing your faith, strengthening your hope and deepening your love of God and neighbor. In the bible the word knowledge is used to describe not merely knowing facts like someone's name, but knowing them personally. Knowing God involves a relationship. God reveals Himself to us and we respond to this gift as thankful stewards of His providence.
