St. Joseph Parish Community was born on 12th December 1988, with the Oblates of St. Joseph, being the first shepherds of the community.

 

Since then, the community has grown from a few hundred to nearly two thousand catholics. The area of our parish is quite vast and covers a newer part of the suburbs of Mumbai.

 

The quaint situation of our parish community is that we have no Church building and Parish house as yet. Our liturgical services and meetings are held at the nearyby Convent of St. Joseph, which is run by the Congregation of the Franciscan Hospitaller Sisters of the Immaculate Conception ( CONFHIC).

 

The two parish fathers live in a rented apartment,  which is situated within a short distance of the Convent Chapel. This premises also serves as a Parish Office and meeting place for parishioners.

 

As you browse through these pages, we hope you come to know a little more about our parish community, which is "the living Church". We solicit your prayers and support in our endeavour to build a Church and Rectory.

 

May St. Joseph, our Patron, bless you and your own.

Fr. Austin Norris

Priest-in-Charge
