About Us

---

St. Joseph Church (Amesbury) and Star of the Sea Church (Salisbury) are Roman Catholic Churches in the northeast corner of the Archdiocese of Boston, Massachusetts. These communities in the Merrimack Region of the Archdiocese are tied together by the created gift of water (rivers, lakes and ocean) and united in faith through the waters of baptism.

We seek to make disciples of Jesus Christ through prayer and worship, lifelong learning, living generous, lives of service, and sharing our faith with others. We strive to be warm, welcoming and caring parishes in which the gifts and talents of all, young and old, are recognized and graciously used to nourish others.
