Welcome
All are Welcome to St. Joseph’s Episcopal Church in McDonough, GA
Please join us for Sunday Worship
at 8:30 AM and 10:30 AM
All are welcome to receive Holy Communion.
We are an inclusive, affirming, and diverse community, where all are welcomed as children of God. We seek to make the world better by loving people as Jesus loved us so we can bring people closer to God. We have several community outreach projects for which we provide monetary and in-kind donations. St. Joseph's hosts a plant sale and an animal blessing for the community. We have a knitting and crochet group and monthly game nights. Come join us as we reach out to serve the world and get together for community fun.
St. Joseph’s mission is to deepen our relationships with God so we can embody Christ in the world. We are a community of grace: demonstrating the transforming power of Jesus Christ as we engage in joyful and meaningful worship; grow spiritually through prayer, study and fellowship; and radiate God’s healing love to a broken world through compassionate outreach.
