Welcome to Saint Joseph Cathedral's Website. We are glad that you are here!
Just as St. Joseph had a significant role in the life of Jesus Christ, St. Joseph Parish has played a significant role in the life of the Catholic Church in New Hampshire and the City of Manchester since 1869. We are grateful to the Lord for the many years of fruitful parish life that St. Joseph’s has had and continues to have today. Our mission is to offer and to celebrate the Sacraments to the faithful with reverence and dignity, for the glory of God and the sanctification of the people. At the Cathedral you will find that our Masses are beautifully and reverently celebrated, that we offer Masses and Confessions daily, Adoration twice weekly, that our parishioners are young and old, are from near and far, and are rich and poor. If you are new to the area or are searching for a parish we invite you to visit the cathedral to see the beauty of the gothic architecture, the richness of the traditional celebration of the Mass and the faith of our parishioners.
If at any time you would like to make a personal contact with myself or one of the staff members do not hesitate to call the parish office or introduce yourself after Mass. Welcome Home!

Prayer for a Spiritual Communion
My Jesus, I believe that You are present in the Most Holy Sacrament. I love You above all things, and I desire to receive You into my soul. Since I cannot at this moment receive You sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace You as if You were already there and unite myself wholly to You. Never permit me to be separated from You. Amen.
