St. Joseph's Catholic Church, Catholic church building on French Street, Wilmington, United States
The church structure displays late Gothic Revival architecture with three brick and cast stone bays beneath a gable roof at 1012 French Street.
The Josephites established this Black Catholic church in the late 1880s, with the current building constructed in 1947 after a fire destroyed its predecessor.
The church stands as a central religious institution for African-American Catholics in Wilmington, continuing its spiritual and community services since its founding.
St. Joseph's Catholic Church conducts masses on Saturdays at 5:00 PM, Sundays at 10:00 AM, and weekday services on Tuesday through Thursday at 12:10 PM.
The rectory, built in 1954, connects to the main church through a one-story passage, creating an integrated religious complex in downtown Wilmington.
