Welcome to Our Lady of Grace and St. Joseph, two of the most deeply-rooted and oldest Roman Catholic churches in the United States. Our Lady of Grace, founded in 1851, and St. Joseph, founded in 1871, were merged into one parish in 2008. We would like to extend a warm greeting to you and encourage you to explore the ministries and activities that occur in our parish.
We are a large community that is here to help fulfill your spiritual needs as well as help you find some peace in the busy Hoboken and Jersey City areas. We are here to help support you locally as you live the Catholic faith in a global society, and we welcome you to share your talents and interests with us. Each day we strive to create a spirit-filled and service-oriented parish that is a beacon of faith, hope, and love not only within our community but in our society as well.
Please feel free to visit us at any time, join us at one of our Masses, or attend one of our events. Welcome to our parish, and we look forward to growing in faith with you!
Cardinal Tobin, our Archbishop, has invited the entire archdiocese to a process of Pastoral Conversion titled, "We Are His Witnesses." As part of this year long discernment, each Catholic is invited to complete this survey, "Disciple Maker Index." It takes a few minutes. We will also make this available in printed form at Sunday Mass for those who would prefer this format. At the beginning of the survey, you may select the language of your choice. Thank you for participating!
The Catholic Social Club has a ton of great upcoming events! Here's the current schedule. We encourage you to come out, make new friends and deepen your faith! For more info, contact Maria Zoccoli, our Pastoral Associate, at
The Archbishop's Annual Appeal is underway! Please pledge/donate what you can; every donation helps us reach our goals of $33,000, then $40,000. If we redeem our pledges, meaning if you pay your pledge off by June 30, 2025, we get a reduction in our annual assessment to the Archdiocese, which is considerable. Any funds above our goal come back to us in the parish. If you pay by credit card, we destroy your information after we charge the card. Pledge envelopes may be found in the church benches. Also, you can make a pledge / donation online here: https://rcan.org/sharing/. We appreciate your support!
