The Basilica of St. Josaphat is a ministry of the Conventual Franciscan Friars on the South Side of Milwaukee in Historic Lincoln Village. The Basilica is a Franciscan center for prayer and spirituality, inspiration and beauty. It is home to a vibrant Roman Catholic parish and remains a testament to the faith of the Polish immigrants who created it.
We invite you to join us for a visit, a tour, for worship or in prayer. Learn about our heritage and check out our offerings. Welcome to the Basilica!
All are invited to a special evening of prayer as we gather for a Mass of Thanksgiving for Pope Leo, celebrated by Bishop Dan Turley, OSA.
Following the Mass, there will be a reception in the undercroft, where you will hear firsthand from Bishop Turley about his long friendship with Pope Leo, as well as insights into Augustinian spirituality and the Augustinian Missions in Peru. It promises to be a meaningful and inspiring evening—everyone is welcome to attend and be part of this memorable occasion!
