Biographical / Historical

The parish of St. Catherine Catholic Church was formed in 1930. It was formed from a division of Blessed Sacrament Catholic Church, which in turn was formed from a division of St. Agnes Parish.

The combination church and school was completed in late November of 1930. It is located on the corner of Corbin Road and North Lockwood Avenue.

In 1954, about five hundred families were relocated to the newly formed parish of Regina Coeli. This did little to decrease the membership of St. Catherine Catholic Church.

Due to the increase of membership, the parish began to build a larger church in 1960. It was completed in 1961. The original church was converted into more classrooms for the crowded school.
