Welcome to God’s Country
Whether you visit or live in Mammoth Lakes, you are blessed by a picturesque view of mountains that surround so many lakes for hiking, running, skiing, fishing, cycling, climbing, and more. In this magnificent paradise, you will find God through His creation and witness all His Glory. As Father Andy Dachauer often said,
“This is God’s Country!”
The Catholic Community of St. Joseph Parish invites you to join our daily and Sunday Mass Celebrations. Please see our Mass Schedule for St. Joseph Church in Mammoth Lakes, Our Savior of the Mountains Mission in Lee Vining, the Infant of Prague Mission in Bridgeport, and Our Lady of the Valley Chapel in Coleville.
As your other Parish away from home, we are here to nurture your spiritual experience in the mountains and to help keep your Faith alive in giving Glory to the Almighty for all His blessings.
The heavens declare the glory of God; the sky proclaims its builder’s craft.
Psalm 19:2

Hi Jorge, I hope this e-mail finds you well. I am writing you, to let you know that I will have surgery on Dec. 10 and 11, at Stanford Hospital. The doctors are going to do a Lumbar Laminectomy and Fusion; its going to be a two-day surgery. I am asking for Prayers that all goes well. I would appreciate the prayers and letting the St. Joseph Parish and the Missions know what is happening. I am sorry I missed you when I was there in August. Even at that time, I was having problems. I still have St. Joseph and the Missions in my mind and prayers. I just hope and pray to the LORD and Guadalupe, that I can continue my journeys there. If everything goes well, I will go to my new assignment, Jesuit High School in Sacramento. I am looking forward, and I will be doing duties for the Community, some involvement in the School and Cristo Rey School. Thank you, for your prayers. I will keep you informed, In Christ, Br.
