Apostolic Life Commission
Commission Leader: Carol Hodge

The Apostolic Life Commission serves to implement the mission of the Church - that we, as the Body of Christ, should go
forth and make disciples.
This is accomplished through implementing, promoting, and supporting parish programs which bring the spiritual and
corporal works of mercy to life within our parish, our surrounding community, and our world.
The Apostolic Life Commission meets the third Wednesday of the month at 7:30 PM at the Pastoral Center Conference
Room. It coordinates the following groups and ministries:
Education Commission

Staff Liasons: Peggy Haupt (DRE) 578-2744, Becky Brown (Principal) 578-2742,
Katie Wesseling (Athletic Director) 578-2742
The Education Commission serves serves as a consultative body, responsible for formulating and recommending policies for
all areas of education as St. Joseph, subject to such regulations that proceed from the Diocese of Covington and/or the
Diocesan Board of Catholic Education. Policies are recommended to the parish for approval.
St. Joseph Education Commission promotes a current, Catholic education that most effectively meets the needs of the parish.

Staff Liason: Tina Klare - 341-6609 ext. #23
Our purpose is to meet the needs of families and youth. These needs are identified by our parish surveys and study groups,
and by continual feedback and recommendations from parishioners, Pastoral Council and staff.
As advocates we hope to make family/youth awareness part of all parish planning, and act on behalf of individuals or groups
in matters of family/youth concerns.
By forming and supporting our committees, we and our committee members serve our families: married couples, parents &
grandparents, sons & daughters.
As a youth advisory team we work with our youth director in planning and promoting youth ministry for junior high to young
adults.
We hope also to promote and support hospitality efforts in our parish for adults groups and parish events.
Commission meetings are the third Tuesdays of even-numbered months at 7:30 P.M. in the Faith Community Center.
All are welcome! Suggestions are welcome!
