"St. Joseph Church was designated a minor Basilica by Pope Paul VI on June 4, 1972. Monsignor Wagner retired in 1983 and it was then that the Congregation of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary was asked by the Oakland Diocese to staff St. Joseph. On August 22, 1983 Fr. Patrick Goodwin was appointed pastor. Fr. Goodwin’s leadership style was to encourage active involvement of the laity in the celebration of the Mass and through the creation of new ministries."
