Who Are We?

Parroquia San José is a Mission of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America and an Immigrant Fellowship of the Presbyterian Church USA, comprised of mostly first generation Latino immigrant families.

Although Reformed theologically, we welcome sisters & brothers who come from a variety of Christian traditions and spiritual backgrounds. Ours is an ecumenical ministry in worship and style. We believe in a Triune God. We honor the memory of the Saints and the Virgin Mary. We respect popular religiosity as a process of conversion to a better life and spiritual development.

Our focus is on the Grace and Love of God for all people, and Christ as the

one who makes our relationship with God and others, possible. Our faith lead us to action, through ministries of accompaniment, advocacy and social justice, in partnership with other organizations, people of good will, and churches.
