St. Joseph's Catholic Church in Garrett is an exquisite example of Italian Renaissance architecture that was dedicated in 1929. The parish began in the 1880's, but it took nearly 50 years before their current building would be constructed.

The exquisite stained glass windows were designed and manufactured by the Hiemer Company of Paterson, New Jersey. They were installed in 1939. The large windows in the nave were completely refurbished by Lupkin Design Studios during the recent restoration of the church. The scenes in the large windows depict events in the life of our Lord and our Lady. On the south side these include (from altar area): the flight of the Holy Family into Egypt; the Finding in the Temple; the death of St. Joseph; the baptism of Jesus by John the Baptist; the wedding feast at Cana. On the north side (from the rear of the church): Christ the Good Shepherd; Jesus blessing the children; the Emmaus Revelation (In the breaking of the bread); the Ascension of the Lord into heaven; and the appearance of the Blessed Virgin Mary to St. Bernadette in the grotto at Lourdes. The grouping of three windows above the south side entrance form a triptych depicting an angel in the center window holding a shield with the monogram IHS standing for the holy Name of Jesus with adorers in the other windows. The window triptych above the north entrance depicts an angel in the center window holding a shield with the monogram "AM" representing the holy name of Mary with two adorers in the other windows.
