To all our visitors…
Bishop John R. Gaydos, the clergy and the faithful of the Diocese of Jefferson City welcome you and hope that your time in
our Mother Church may be an opportunity to share our faith
and joy in Our Lord Jesus Christ.
Our parish was formed in 1959 and was elevated to the title of
Cathedral in 1968 and dedicated in 1974. Please enjoy the beauty of this spacious building dedicated to the Glory of God and
the memory of Saint Joseph, the Husband of Mary. It was built
for the inspiration of all who enter. Free tour booklets are available.
All visitors who are not of the Roman Catholic faith are most
welcome to join us in prayer and worship, but not to receive Holy Communion. Reception of Holy Communion is a sign of full
unity and membership in the Catholic community. Together let
us all pray for the unity of all believers.
If you desire to become a member of the Roman Catholic
Church or to become a member of the Cathedral Parish, please
call the parish office at 573-635-7991.
All contributions to the Cathedral ministries and maintenance
are sincerely appreciated. Please remember this Cathedral parish
in your Will, gifts and estate plans to support our parish’s ongoing mission.

WELCOME to all who gather in our Cathedral Church for The
Third Sunday of Ordinary Time, and Catholic Schools
Week!
WEEK OF PRAYER: We ask each member of our Cathedral
parish to pray for the members of one of the parishes or missions in our diocese this week. As a Cathedral Church, all our
parishes are linked to us and we wish to deepen the spiritual
bond with them. Therefore, we will pray this week for St.
Thomas the Apostle, St. Thomas.
Our Cathedral Parish has 5,000 souls to fill these ministries and
as Altar Servers, yet we are very understaffed. Ideally, in order
to fulfill the monthly needs of our weekend Masses we need 75
Lectors, but only have 51 volunteers, need 150 Eucharistic Ministers, yet have 93 volunteers, need 100 Ushers, but have 61 and
need 100 Altar Servers, but only have 46 volunteers.
WEEK OF PRAYER FOR CONSECRATED LIFE: Pope
Francis has asked us to remember in prayer, all members of
communities of Male and Female Religious. This week we
pray for the Living and Deceased members of, plus for an
increase in vocations for, the Sisters of the Third Order of
St. Dominic, OP.
PILGRIMAGE OPPORTUNITY

Greece of St. Paul, the Apostle to the Gentiles. We will be on
pilgrimage in his footsteps from September 27 to October 7,
2015. The cost is at an incredibly low price of only $3,740. We
will visit, pray and explore Athens, Corinth, Thessaloniki, Philippi, Ephesus, Island of Crete, Island of Patmos as well as Santorini. Msgr. Kurwicki was last on tour in 2013. If you have any

This year is the 40th anniversary of the Rice Bowl. It began as a
small project in the Diocese of Allentown to bring awareness of
and food relief to the hungry in Africa. Today, 13,000 parishes
across the country, including our own, participate in CRS Rice
Bowl in order to feed the hungry at home and abroad and to
deepen our experience of Lent.
As you probably know, 75% of the money collected goes to Catholic Relief Services to subsidize food distribution, agricultural
development, clean water access and other projects in the developing world. The remaining 25% remains in our Diocese. Many
parishes choose to keep that share to help fund local hunger and
anti-poverty, while others choose to submit the entire amount in
which case the 25 % goes to Catholic Charities to support similar
efforts.
We urge you to take a look at the website at
www.crsricebowl.org. They have great resources to help you
including prayers, stories and reflections. There is even a handy
CRS Rice Bowl app for your phone or tablet which will deliver
daily reflections, meatless recipes, as well as track and share your
Lenten commitment. Ash Wednesday is February 18!

The search for the Cathedral’s Director of Music began in early
December. The committee met with Msgr. Kurwicki and Fr.
Aubuchon and began by reviewing, then finalizing, the “Duties
of the Director of Music”, a document which would be posted on
the Cathedral’s website and referred to in our advertising.
Three venues were used in our advertising: catholicjobs.com,
musicasacra.com, and National Pastoral Musicians.com. These
were the same sources used successfully in the selection of our
last Director of Music. The advertising is producing good interest, and to date, we now have 13 applicants for the position. The
search team will meet on Tuesday, February 3 to review all of
the resumes, and any reference materials submitted by the applicants, in order to determine which of these would be the best
possible fit for our Cathedral parish. Initial contacts will be
made by the chairman of the search committee to determine the
actual level of interest in the position. Interviews with these
applicants by the search team would then follow.
Please keep the search for our Director of Music in your daily
prayers.
