For couples who are civilly married and wishing to have their marriage validated in the Catholic Church, please contact the Parish Office. There are many misunderstandings on who can be married in the Church. Even if you have been told that you cannot be married in the Church, call the Parish Office to set up an appointment with a priest or deacon. At St. Joseph we are here to help you on your faith journey.
