The Windows of St. Joseph

March 9, 2013 - News & Events

Dear parishioners and visitors:

St. Joseph Catholic Church was dedicated on 19 March (St, Joseph’s feast day), 1953. The bell tower was added in 1957. Some of the windows from the old church, funded by donors Mr. and Mrs. J. E. Albrich sometime before 1889, were incorporated into the newly dedicated church. *See Addendum* Unfortunately, we do not know the name of the windows’ artists/creators. But we do consider the stained glass windows that adorn our church to be a parish and diocesan treasure. What they say to those who view them ought to be fully understood and appreciated, from both an artistic and religious perspective. We hope that this brochure will help lead to that understanding and appreciation.
