Welcome a New Family to St Joe’s
 
Do you remember what it was like when you were the new kid in the neighborhood, or the fresh face in school, or the new guy at work?  
 
Each year, well over 100 new families join St. Joseph Parish.  Maybe they are the family sitting nearby at Mass or the new face looking at you from across the church.  Maybe they are the young couple waiting for someone to reach out to them.  
 
St. Joe’s invites you to share your love for our Parish by becoming an “ambassador” to one of these new faces.  We invite you to undertake a simple act on behalf of the Parish.  It is not labor intensive and certainly not time-consuming.  We are asking you to extend a welcome to a new family.  You won’t have to figure out how to do this by yourself.   We’ll give you some tools (a gift basket, some Parish resource information, a “how to” guide) to make the process simple and best of all, welcoming. 
 
Remember when someone took you aside to be your friend, showed you the ropes or just helped you feel like you belonged?  If you are interested in sharing your passion a few times each year with a new family, please call Gerry Salzman (847-612-4099) or send an email to gesint49@gmail.com. and we’ll show you how you can help.
