Born to a poor, Catholic peasant family, he pursued religious and military careers in order to educate himself and integrate with French society.

			Doucé's body was not released for burial until July, 1992, and then only under the condition that the burial be private, and there be no grave stone placed by the family. A marker was eventually placed by Rev. Hans Visser, who lead the ''Pauluskerk'' (St. Paul's Church) in Rotterdam, a parish of the Netherlands Reformed Church. In 1993, the Pauluskerk issued a memorial volume for Doucé, ''Voor alles pastor: de zorg van Joseph Doucé voor sexuele minderheden'' (Pastor before all else: Joseph Doucé's ministry for sexual minorities), with essays on each area of Doucé's concerns. The Pauluskerk's general sexuality committee (in 1991) also renamed itself the Doucé Committee in his honor.<ref>[[Donald Mader]], [https://www.cblf.org/paraklesis/vol2iss1/page8.html ''Dutch conference on marginal sexualities''], vol. 2, issue 1 (winter 2001).</ref>

In September 1976, he established the [[Centre du Christ Libérateur]] in Paris, commonly called Paris's "gay church." He ministered to, and sought social acceptance for, many sexual minorities who were then marginal even in the mainstream "gay" movement: transsexuals, transvestites, sadomasochists, and pedophiles. In 1982, he obtained French nationality.
