Parish Mission Statement
"We, the parish community of St. Joseph Catholic Church (Elk Grove) and Mission Church of St. Vincent de Paul (Rancho Murieta), enriched by many traditions and cultures, come together to worship God in sacrament, liturgy and prayer.
We are committed to acting as One Body of Christ, and to living One Faith with the help of the Holy Spirit. We continually seek to reach out in loving service to others, both within our parish as well as in the greater community, in order to spread the Good News of our faith." -
