Been away from the church and thinking about reconnecting? St. Joseph Catholic Church in Wauwatosa welcomes you!

We are all pilgrim people on different legs of the journey home. If you've been away from the church for a long time or short time, you're still welcome at God's home! If you are coming from another faith tradition or no tradition at all, we welcome you home to the Church founded by Jesus and expanded by his apostles to all people.

We're happy to answer questions about our parish, about the Mass, about the Catholic Church today, and about how we as a parish can serve you.

If you are ready for more, we have ministries and programs to support people returning to active parish life. Among those programs is RCIA, the Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults that will help bring you fully into the Church. We also have a Rite of Christian Initiation for Children program.

Call adult ministry director Peter Andrastek with any questions or needs - 414-771-4626, ext. 110, or This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .

If you are planning to visit us for Mass, here's what to expect.
