You can also deliver your envelope to the parish office Monday through Thursday from 9am to 5pm.

general notes about csa
The Catholic Services Appeal (CSA) provides resources for important ministries that help the faithful in our six-county Archdiocese to grow in their relationship with Jesus and become joyful, missionary disciples. Joining with fellow Catholics across metro Detroit in this initiative, we help "announce the Gospel of the Lord" to the Church in Metro Detroit while fulfilling the CSA obligation for our parish.
Our assigned CSA goal for 2023 is $273,234. HELPFUL LINKS
Because we like to sweeten the gift-giving process a bit, we are offering a cool incentive for our early-bird givers.* Everyone who makes a CSA pledge of $200 or more and turns it in ON OR BEFORE Kick-off Weekend will get a free St. Joseph Church ball cap! If you make a pledge of $500 or more you can have TWO ball caps! (Limit two hats per family, please.)
Remember, if you spread your gift out over the 10 months of the campaign, a $200 pledge is only $20 per month. That works out to less just $5 per week! You don't have to pay the pledge on kick-off weekend to be eligilble for a hat. Just make your pledge of $200 or more on or before May 21st and then faithfully pay it over the 10 month campaign.
*NOTE: All pledges that were mailed in will be honored kick-off weekend.
ANNUAL CSA RAFFLE Everyone who makes a pledge or donation to our 2023 CSA campaign will be entered to win our VIP (Very Important Parishioner) PRIZE PACKAGE which includes a reserved parking spot (for weekend Mass and holy days from 7-1-23 thru 6-30-24) right near the north doors to the church; a reserved pew for your family in the church for Christmas 2023 (eve or day) and Easter 2024 (vigil or day); and assorted extra St. Joe’s bling. Make your pledge on or before kick-off weekend and get your name into the drawing twice!
