About St. Joseph Church

The second oldest of the three LaPorte Catholic churches, St. Joseph's was founded in 1858 by German Catholic immigrants.  The church has the distinction of worshiping in the original structure that was built by its founders.   St. Joseph's is a beautiful, multicultural Catholic community with a commitment to living our lives for each other in the name of Jesus Christ.  It is now one of three churches that makes up Holy Family Parish.  To learn more about the the founding of the parish, explore the link below.

What does St. Joseph's Church mean to us parishioners?  It is the greatest gift of God; to which we poor wanderers in this vale of tears here below, can go at any time to quench our thirst, to be refreshed and strengthened on our long way to eternity."
