We're Growing - St. Joseph
from Anchored In The Lord
22nd Sunday in Ordinary Time (08/30/26) Something is happening in our parish—and it's beautiful. We're growing: more young families, more baptisms, more people becoming Catholic, and more people coming home to the faith after years away. That doesn't happen by accident. It's the Holy Spirit moving through this community, through the prayers, service, hospitality, and witness of so many people. Like Jeremiah's image of God's word as a fire in his bones, when we encounter something real in Jesus, we can't help but share it—and that faith spreads. We see it especially in ministries like Catechesis of the Good Shepherd, where children aren't simply learning facts about God; they're being given space to encounter Christ. And as our parish grows, we're asking an important question: how can everything we do point more clearly to Jesus and make it easier for people to encounter Him? That's at the heart of conversations about our sanctuary and parish spaces. Nothing has been decided, but the vision is simple: put Jesus at the center—literally and spiritually. God is doing great things here, and He's not finished with this parish. So let's keep saying yes to Him and stay open to where He leads us next.
