Our Parish Mission Statement

We, the community of St Joseph’s,

Derby are a people bound together
by our belief in the Gospel teaching of Jesus.
We strive to value all people of
whatever creed, culture, status age or ability.

We aim to share the happiness our faith
brings us with each other and to allow
the Spirit of Jesus to work amongst us,
helping us to build a community rich in
prayer, unity and service.

We hope to reflect this richness in
our relationships with our families,
our friends and all those we meet in our  
daily lives.
 
Flower Arrangers and Cleaners
Each week a small group of parish flower
arrangers (three principal organisers) give of
their time to make sure the church looks
beautiful and is in keeping with our worship
and love of God.
Further volunteers are always welcome to
 join us.                                                              

Church Cleaning
A small group of volunteers ensure
that our church is kept in good order.
We would be delighted if you would consider
joining us and your help would be
greatly appreciated.
Coffee and tea supplied!
