The 2025 Appeal for Catholic Ministries is underway. If you have not made your pledge, envelopes can be found in the entrance of the church, or in the church office. Your generous support enables our Diocese to deliver much needed ministries, and services that impact all parishes and people of all ages throughout Southeast Texas. Thank you for your prayerful consideration, and your generous response!
Corpus Christi Mass Change
As a reminder, all masses this Sunday, June 22nd, will begin 30 minutes early to include the procession of Corpus Christi. This means the 9:00am English Mass will begin at 8:30am, and the 11:00am Spanish Mass will begin at 10:30am.
St. Andrew's Dinner
The Bishop David Toups and the Diocese of Beaumont invite all males over the age of 16 who are interested in the priesthood to attend the annual St. Andrew dinner on June 25th at 6:00pm in the family center of St. Joseph in Livingston. This event is RSVP only due to the amount of space available in the family center. If you would like to attend, please contact Deacon Bob Ruiz at [email protected] to reverse your spot.

Safe Environment
St. Joseph Catholic Church is committed to providing a safe and protected environment for our parishioners. In order to do this, we would like to remind everyone, in accordance with Diocesan guidelines, that any person over the age of 18 who volunteers in any capacity for the church needs to complete a background screening and the “Protecting God’s Children” training before beginning their ministry to the church. Requirements can be completed at the following link:
Remember: If you volunteer as an Usher, Lector, Minister, Maintenance professional, Catechist, Vacation Bible School volunteer, or dedicate your time on any council, committee or group, please make sure you have completed the above requirements. If you are unsure if you have completed the requirements to volunteer, or are unsure whether the requirements apply to you, please contact the church office as soon as possible for more information.
