Our Mission

​St. Bernadette Parish is a welcoming Catholic faith community, empowered by the Holy Spirit to help bring about the Kingdom of God, through worshiping in sacrament, teaching the Word, and serving as Jesus did. 


"To live for God only, for God everywhere, for God always!"
—Saint Bernadette (1867)
We are proud of our heritage and the ways it continues to form our ministries. We are inspired by the life and blessings of our patron, St. Bernadette, and called to live Jesus' ministries in our neighborhood and beyond.

To verify that we are closed, watch for St. Bernadette Parish (or Saint Bernadette Parish) in the closings on Today's TMJ 4, Fox 6, or WISN Channel 12, or look for us on the closing pages on their websites.
