Our Mission
Midtown Catholic is a community of two parishes in the Archdiocese of Omaha.
We are One Church: Encountering Jesus, Equipping Disciples, Living Mercy, Sending Apostles.
Parish Locations
Both St. Joan of Arc and St. Thomas have proud histories. About a seven minute drive from one another, both parishes were founded in the early 1960s. As neighborhood parishes they both grew as the neighborhoods grew filling with young families.
As the neighborhoods change so do the parishes. Now in a new season of life, St. Joan of Arc and St. Thomas More, are committed to work together to continue the mission. In the summer of 2020, the parishes began a partnership of sharing a pastor, ministries, maintenance, Mass schedule, and mission. The parishes use the name “Midtown Catholic” to describe this partnership.

3122 S. 74th St
St. Joan of Arc Parish was founded in 1958 and has been serving the Catholic community of central Omaha ever since. Parishioners are dedicated to community outreach and host a number of parish events, including the annual Sausage Fest.

𝓡𝓲𝓼𝓮𝓷 𝓛𝓸𝓻𝓭,
You promised the gift of the Holy Spirit—send us wisdom and courage to share Your grace, hope, and mercy with the world. When we feel lost or burdened, remind us of the joy of the Resurrection and the power of Your presence with us still. Help us to seek justice, love mercy, and walk humbly with You—living as witnesses of Your kingdom on earth.
Amen.
