St. Joseph the Carpenter Ministry
St. Joseph the Carpenter Ministry is looking for men and women who wish to serve persons of less fortune by showing love and compassion through home repair assistance. When we help our neighbors we show our faith to the world and bring Jesus’ mission to life. Teams of two or more (depending on the scope of the job) will perform needed repairs for the elderly, disabled and those experiencing financial difficulties within our community. If you can spare a few hours a month, or even a few hours this summer, your service would be greatly appreciated.

Typical jobs include:
- Replace window or door
- Repair roof/gutter/siding
