History
The words of the psalmist perhaps best describe the magnificent structure which tells of the rich heritage of the people of Thibodaux from the early 1800's. In 1819, a small wooden mission church was built along Bayou Lafourche, the main thoroughfare of bayou people. The first pastor of St. Joseph Church was Father Charles Menard, best known for his work in building the parish community and establishing outlying parishes. In 1916, the early church burned. A lovely stained-glass window commemorating this church can be found in the present church above the rectory side entrance. In 1920, Monsignor Alexander Barbier, pastor from 1911 to 1935, initiated the construction and design of the present church. The exterior was completed in early 1923, and the first Mass was held on January 25th. Ornamental plaster and marble work on the interior were completed in 1931. Stained glass windows adorn what is now known as St. Joseph Co-Cathedral, portraying the events of the life of Christ, from the Annunciation through His Resurrection. The splendid Rose Window which overlooks the main entrance to the church facing Canal Boulevard, is modeled after that of the Cathedral of Notre Dame in Paris.
