The older parishioners (not in age but in years of residence) gratefully remember that for a year and a half the Sisters shared their chapel with them. This instant church made it possible to begin functioning immediately.
The church building and eight classrooms were completed in the autumn of 1955. We should say they were almost completed for the school was opened with unfinished floors and temporary heating. Such inconveniences served only to cement the spirit of the parish.
Eight more classrooms were added in 1959. The Convent was built in 1961. The present Rectory at 17 Hawkesbury Drive was formerly the convent. In 1969, additional property was bought from the Franciscan Sisters to complete the Athletic Field.
There have been eight pastors: Father Francis Kelly, Father Ralph Zimmer, Father John Geoghgan, Father John Klocker, Monsignor Jack Schuler, Father Jim Foster and Father John-Paul Hopping.
