We will again be hosting two fish fries as a fundraiser for the St. Joseph’s youth group. The dates are March 15 and April 5. Serving will be from 4:30—7:30 pm. Cost is $12 for adults, $6 for children 8 and under. Carry-outs will also be available and everyone is welcome!

St. Joseph Church in Hayward will have confessions starting at 1:00 pm, with Blessing of Articles at 1:55, followed by Mass, Veneration, Chaplet & Litany, Exposition, Rosary, Readings and Benediction. All are welcome and encouraged to join in this very holy service.

The youth of St. Joseph’s Parish ask you to prayerfully consider donating new items or handcrafted items for our silent auction on May 5. Some ideas include: handmade or new wood crafts, blankets, artwork, tickets/passes to an event, electronics, hotel stays, gift certificates, gift baskets, etc. All donated items need to be dropped off by April 12. Auction items will be on display in the church hall from April 14 to May 5. Bidding will end May 5, 2019, at 11:30 am at the conclusion of the Pancake Breakfast. THEN, May 10 and 11 will be the Rummage Sale! Proceeds go to the youth program. Please retain any Christmas items for the Recycled Christmas sale in November.

Free professional photography sessions for the new St. Joseph Parish Directory. Parishioners will receive a free 8x10 portrait, a free printed directory and have the opportunity to purchase additional portraits. St. Ann’s will be working with us on this new directory. If you have any questions, contact JoAnn Evans at 715-634-1726 or 2evans@centurytel.net.
