Saint Joseph was founded in 1884 and is one of the oldest parishes in the Commonwealth. We are located in Columbia, Virginia. St. Joseph is also one of only two national shrines to Saint Katharine Drexel. Sunday Mass is at 9am. Come visit us!

In March 2024, our parish will be celebrating 140 years of the Eucharist!  During the year leading up to this wonderful occasion, we are having monthly events to celebrate our history and the people who have made our parish great.
