Our Lady of Grace R.C. Church:

Welcome to the church of Our Lady of Grace, one of the most deeply-rooted Roman Catholic parishes in the U.S. Explore our website and get to know the modern community behind one of the oldest and largest church’s in New Jersey.

As of January 2008, the churches of Our Lady of Grace and St. Joseph merged into one parish with two sites, at this time. This joint community is here to help you find peace in the busy Hoboken and Jersey City area, and to support you locally as you live your faith in an increasingly global society. We hope that you feel a part of this Catholic family we call a parish.

Please join us at one of our masses or activities to feel the mystery and the history at Our Lady of Grace & St. Joseph, and to witness the change and strength of our community.
