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

Dear Brothers and Sisters, We begin a new Liturgical Year with the “season of expectation,” Advent. The four weeks of Advent is a time for us to slow down and to take time to reflect upon the season as we prepare for the Great Feast of Christmas. As we prepare, and make straight the way for the coming of the Lord, let us ponder the role of Our Lady during this month of December. On December 8, we acknowledge her Immaculate Conception. On December 12, we call to mind her heavenly visit to St. Juan Diego as Our Lady of Guadalupe on the hill of Tepeyac... Click on the photo to read the complete message.Read More

Parish Hall Construction Update
On Sunday, August 20, 2017, Monsignor Bill Leser blessed the site of the new Parish Hall, and construction began. Interior work and final finishing is progressing now. On July 1, 2018, the construction was blessed by Bishop Myron Cotta of the Diocese of Stockton. If you have been thinking about providing financial support for this project and have been waiting….wait no more! We are still in need of many items to make this Hall fully functional. To donate to this exciting project, go to the Online Giving page. For photos of the progress and more information, click on the picture.
