Quinceañeras
The celebration is not a Sacrament. Rather, the Mass is a time to give thanks for the gift of life and an opportunity for young men and women to renew and strengthen their faith.
"Give thanks to the LORD for he is good, his love is everlasting."
We are delighted that you have chosen to give thanks to the Lord through a Mass of Thanksgiving.
We offer two options for celebrating your Quinceañera: Individual and Group Quinceañeras.
Below you can find requirements, date reservation, and other information. For additional information, feel free to email us at receptionist@stjoseph-haw.org
