A “Family of Parishes” is not a merger or cluster, and each individual parish in the family retains its own canonical identity.
St. Joseph Parish is a member of the Emmanuel Family of Parishes which includes Church of the Holy Family of Novi, St. James Parish of Novi, and St. William Parish of Walled Lake.
