Parish Mission St. Joseph Parish, Libertyville, is a family of faith in the Catholic Tradition. We are called in Baptism to be disciples of Jesus Christ and stewards of all God's creation. As disciples we are formed and fed at the Table of God's Word and of His Body. In Gratitude we are sent forth from the Eucharistic celebration to continue the ministry of Christ in our community and in our world.

Parish Vision Our parish is more than a set of buildings; it is a faith family, brought together by our baptismal call to discipleship, the sacramental traditions of the Church, and the real desire to foster Christian community in an ever-changing world. To live this vision, all members of our family are called to:
• Grow our relationship with God by joyfully celebrating the liturgy and sacraments and by participating in comprehensive faith formation • Cultivate an expanding atmosphere of Christian hospitality • Continually examine our call to discipleship through the sharing of time, talents, and resources, and • Dedicate ourselves to the work of social justice. The passion with which our faith family lives this vision determines the extent to which we will be identified as grateful disciples. |
