Saint Joseph Catholic Faith Community
 
 

Welcome to Saint Joseph Parish

Father Dick Robinson

As pastor, let me welcome you to our parish website here in Big Bend, named after the bend the Little Fox River takes in our community.

We began in 1872 as a small farming community, and although today we have grown to nearly 1,000 families, we still maintain the caring of family where we want you to feel at home. Browse through our website to find the information you need, and then let us come to know you personally. Contact any of us in the manner in which you are most comfortable. We're here to serve you. God's blessings on your day.

Fr. Dick Robinson
