Dear Friends,
Welcome to the Old St. Joseph Church web site for the members and friends of St. Norbert College Parish. As you will see as you navigate throughout the site, we are a very active college parish made up of 2,000 students coupled with 380 households who celebrate active ties to our college community.
Established in 1969 as the first college parish in the United States, our liturgies–the ’font and summit’ of our parish life together–welcome people of all ages from all parts of northeastern Wisconsin and from the Midwest.
While the information presented here gives you an idea of who we are, how we worship and how we serve as a community of faith, a visit to our church will give you a much more accurate and spirited introduction as to what makes us a rather unique, Catholic church rooted in the Norbertine tradition. Towards that end, do know that our doors are always open to you–you are most welcome!
Yours in Ss. Norbert and Joseph,
Father James Baraniak, O.Praem.
Pastor of St. Norbert College Parish
