Cost to Educate

Invitation to Membership at St. Joseph Catholic Church
Our pastor, Father Stephen Ingram, and our principal, Ms. Fran Thompson, welcome any Catholic family not already active parishioners to become a St. Joseph Catholic Church member. Dual parishioner status (being a member of more than one parish) is an option. Membership will allow your family to become more involved in our parish's rich, faith-filled life. You will receive communications about parish activities you might want to join and the Texas Catholic newspaper.
To be considered a contributing parishioner and receive the parishioner tuition rate for the 2025-2026 school year, families must register as parishioners and contribute a minimum of $5 per week ($260 per year per family) to the St. Joseph Catholic Church general fund (Sunday offerings) by December 31, 2024. At least one parent must be a practicing Catholic, raising your child(ren) in the Catholic church.
