Welcome to St. John Gualbert Cathedral.
We are the Johnstown Cathedral for the Diocese of Altoona Johnstown and the home of the Proclaim TV Ministry where we broadcast our Sunday Mass each week. Watching the Mass on TV or on-line does not take the place of being present in person, but it is a wonderful opportunity to witness, worship, pray and reflect. Please click here to see our most recent Sunday Masses.
Our Cathedral is open for Mass and for the sacrament of Confession with Covid19 safety precautions. We invite you to visit and attend Mass or pray privately. Our current parish bulletin, shown below, provides our most up-to-date schedule.
If you would like to arrange a private confession, if you have any questions, or if you have an emergency, please contact our parish office at 814.536.0117. Thank you and may God bless you.


Our vibrant and historic Roman Catholic Parish is located in downtown Johnstown, PA.
The cathedral was built with an unusual steel substructure after the Great Johnstown Flood of 1889. Our parish administers two historic cemeteries, St John Gualbert Catholic Cemetery and St. Joseph Catholic Cemetery, both located in the Geistown section of Johnstown. Please click here for Google maps of our two cemeteries.
