About Saint Joseph Catholic Church in Petersburg, Virginia:
For those looking for beauty in a Catholic Church, don’t miss this beautifully restored church. Under the guidance of Architect Erik Bootsma along with the help and advice of the two pastors (one former and one current) this building has been brought to life. The restoration of the altar and stone flooring is credited to Rugo Stone.
This large project was part of a long term master plan for a growing parish. The master plan features an expanded parish hall, improved offices, parking and most of all a new church to replace an aging 1970s church which was originally designed for a Protestant congregation. The new church is designed and rendered to provide a focus for long term fund-raising.
This traditional church is oriented to the east, and the altar is emphasized by a prominent baldachino and gilded mosaic apse ceiling.
The exterior features a large courtyard sits to the west of the church to allow for outdoor liturgies and other informal gatherings.
As you can see from the “before” and “after” photos the results have been magnificent.
