“Love begins at home and it is not how much we do, but how much love we put in that action.” - Saint Mother Teresa

Saint Mother Teresa's Food Pantry is one of the many ministries here at Saint Joseph Church.  In answer to the Lord's calling of feeding the poor and giving drink the the thirsty, we here at Saint Joseph Parish Community, take this vocation of service very seriously.  Therefore, we invite each and every parishioner to bring at least one can or box of food to church EVERY weekend. This way our shelves will always be full for those in need. 

Those who are in need of food for themselves or their families are invited to come in and choose your desired food each Monday from 10:30am-12:00 Noon (side entrance of the Parish Center).

The Father Michael J. Burke Thrift Shop is now open in the white building (across the street from the church and the left of the commnity center).  

The Thrift Shop is open Thursdays and Fridays from 10:00am-4:00pm and Saturdays from 9:30am-12:30pm.   Come and see what we have done with our new building.  "All Are Welcome!"  973.3833.6816.

If you have any gently used clothing (men, women or children), dishes, plates, glasses, please come and drop them off during operating hours or call the Parish Center during the week.  Unfortunately, we do not accept any electronic devices, television or stereo systems at this time.  

Thank you for being part of this very important ministry in our church here in Newton!
