As fall approaches, the Thanksgiving Angels Committee turns their attention to the annual Thanksgiving distribution serving 2000 families in Pittsfield . Once again, St Joseph’s Church is partnering with St. Charles’ Parish to provide gravy for the meal. We have secured gravy in bulk and are asking for monetary donations to offset this cost. Our target of $2,500, is our portion of the overall cost of the gravy ordered. Thank you in advance for your generosity and support of this community project!
In honor of the 2023 Priest Convocation in the Diocese of Springfield, Masses will be canceled October 18-20. Scheduled Mass intentions will be said by me during convocation.

Holy hour will take place on the Last Sunday of each month which is September 24th immediately following the 9 o'clock Mass. The St. Anne Society will lead the recitation of the Rosary.
