Welcome
We are happy to welcome you to The Cathedral of St. Joseph, a place of history and a place where history continues to be made. The Cathedral stands today as a landmark in the gigantic march of history that is the heritage of the Catholic Church. It is a tribute to the early settlers of Baton Rouge, to missionaries from Europe who suffered from the epidemics, the Civil War, the shortages and inconveniences of settling a new land. It is a credit before God and others to the generosity of a people of faith and hope, who gave more than bricks and bells, who have sought always to share a faith and love. May the countless prayers offered within its walls bring a blessing to all who enter its doors. May that blessing follow you as you visit and go with you as you leave. The parishioners of the Cathedral of St. Joseph wish you well.
