ONE BODY, ONE BAPTISM, ONE FAITH
One Body - One Baptism - One Faith - are the things which define the people of Saint Joseph
Parish. Our large crucifix (27 feet) reminds us continually that we are to die to
Jesus Christ. The large opening shroud around it reminds us of
the
Resurrection and the joy that service to each
other and the community brings to us.
We are a community of
close to 825 households and over 4900 members. It is a family
parish that spans the generations from newborns to
great-great-grandparents. We have a strong and vibrant school of
about 400 students K-8. The buildings seem to never sleep as they
are constantly filled with activities and volunteers.
If you are in the Opryland/Music Valley area, or live in the
Madison, Inglewood, Goodlettsville, Hendersonville or Old Hickory
neighborhoods, we invite you to join us!
May God bless you.
Father Tomy Joseph, MSFS
Pastor

Saint Joseph School
PreK-8th Grade, SACS Accredited, Bus Service, Tuition Assistance
NOW ENROLLING FOR THE 2012/2013 SCHOOL YEAR. In
today's increasingly secular culture, there is something to be said
for the privilege of practicing one's faith as a bedrock of their
education. At St. Joseph School, this is experienced on a daily
basis. The faith that we share is incorporated into an outstanding
academic environment. Students will use the principles that Catholic
schools instill in them, to help guide them through high school and
adulthood.
Private tours may be scheduled at any time by calling the school
office at 865-1491.
