WELCOME TO SAINT JOSEPH.
One Body. One Baptism. One Faith. These 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 840 households and over 3,000 members. It is a
family parish that spans the generations from newborns to
great-great-grandparents. We have a strong and vibrant school of 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 Madison,
Goodlettsville, Hendersonville or Old Hickory neighborhoods, we invite you to
join us!

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.
