We began our ministry at Our Lady of Fatima in the 1940s. In the years since, we have attended to the needs of a growing Hispanic population and are currently one of only two Hispanic parishes in the area. Many of our parishioners could be classified as “working poor.”

St. Joseph parish is in the heart of Jersey City. It is the oldest continuously operating Catholic Church in Jersey City. It is a multicultural parish. Beginnings of this church goes back to 1857. The church was dedicated to St. Joseph, the patron of the working men. The early settlers were Irish laborers. The Claretians took over the parish on July 1, 2019.

In our Province we serve in the following places across the U.S.,
particularly in high-poverty, urban areas:

In 1902, the Claretians arrived in San Antonio from Mexico and in 1912 built this parish. The church itself has since been designated a Historic Exceptional Landmark by the city of San Antonio. Today the parish brings in people from a wide area of the surrounding community.

This parish serves an immigrant Hispanic community on the southeast side of Chicago. Like many Claretian parishes, at OLG we deal with poverty, gangs, drugs, domestic violence, and unemployment. Our church is also the home of the National Shrine of St. Jude that is visited by thousands of people every year.

We arrived at the mother of the California Missions in 1908 to further the charism of our founder by restoring, rebuilding, and revitalizing the spiritual life of the parish. Today in this multicultural parish, we offer programs and services in English, Spanish, and Vietnamese.

We began our ministry in this parish along the border in 2000 as an inter-provincial partnership with the Claretian Province of Mexico. This parish serves families that have migrated to the border in search of employment primarily in the mega-factories employing the poorest of the poor at substandard wages.
