The Basilica of St. Josaphat

The Basilica of St. Josaphat stands as a testimony to the perservance of the Polish immigrant population that created it and remains a monument to the faith of the generations that have followed. The Basilica is the home of an active parish community under the pastoral leadership of the Conventual Franciscans. This website presents various opportunities to pray, minister, serve, and socialize with us. We hope that it serves as a ready reference of what is available and of the individuals to contact regarding particular activities, events, and organizations.  The Basilica of St. Josaphat is a ministry of the Conventual Franciscans on the South Side of Milwaukee in Historic Lincoln Village. The Basilica is a Franciscan center for prayer and spirituality, inspiration and beauty. It is home to a vibrant Roman Catholic parish and remains a testament to the faith of the Polish immigrants that created it. We invite you to join us for a visit, a tour, for worship or in prayer.
