Grotto of the Immaculate Conception
Grotto
Our Grotto of the Immaculate Conception was dedicated to St Joseph Parish on August 15, 2022. The generous donations of our parishioners fully funded this Grotto. Seating is available in front of the Grotto to allow you to spend time in prayer with our Mother Mary 24 hours a day. Parking is also available if you prefer to sit in your vehicle.
Memorial Bricks can be purchased near the Grotto in memory of our families or deceased members of our community. Please contact the church office if you would like to purchase a Memorial Brick.
Consecration of St Joseph Community to Mary
O, Our Lady of Immaculate Conception, Queen of heaven and earth, our life, our sweetness, and our hope, we dedicate your grotto in the name of the Immaculate Conception on the feast of your Assumption. We, the families of St Joseph Community, come before you to consecrate ourselves to you as your possession and property. We praise God because he has brought us together to give ourselves to you, our Mother. We do this because Jesus said on the Cross, "Behold your Mother." We need you, Mother Mary, to help us to be a truly Catholic family. Enter into our family life. Repeat to us the words you spoke at Cana, "Do whatever He tells you." Help us to overlook one another's faults, to forgive as Jesus has forgiven us, and to love one another as Our Lord has asked us to love. Please use our family to crush the head of the serpent. Ask your Spouse, St Joseph, Protector of the universal Church and our church parish to keep us one in mind and heart. Today you have become the Queen of our hearts and home. May all those who come to visit this grotto and pray, receive special favor through you, our Mother. May our home be a "City of Immaculata," where the Sacred Heart of Jesus reigns forever. Amen.
