Come Visit the Community at The Shrine of St Joseph

The September 11, 2001 Memorial

The 9/11 Memorial was donated and created in 2002, through the generosity of Ray and Cathy Donovan. The beams are from the World Trade Center, North Tower, and the bells are from the former Seminary of the Missionary Servants of the Most Holy Trinity.

We honor those that lost their lives that day, and our prayer is that this quiet space offers families and each of us the opportunity to find comfort and to reflect on our call to be peacemakers in our everyday life.

The Pilgrim Oratory to
St. Joseph

This sacred oratory, a long-awaited recognition in honor of the Shrine’s patron saint, houses the “Life of St. Joseph” mosaic as its central theme. The Pilgrim Oratory serves as a holy place of prayer, pilgrimage and peace for the thousands of people who visit the Shrine annually. Through prayer, pilgrimage and worship, the Shrine of St. Joseph provides an indispensable opportunity for evangelization in our time.
