Brief History
Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Parish was founded in 1954. Our school opened the same year. The present school cafeteria served as the church from 1954 until 1976 when the new church was completed and dedicated. The parish has continued to grow over the years and our parish center, The Fallon Center, was dedicated in January of 1993. At the same time, the demand for Catholic education rose to the point where we had to double the size of our school. The new school was dedicated in September of 1997. The new parish office building and Perpetual Adoration Chapel were dedicated in March of 1997. As part of the "Our Lady of Lourdes Dreams" Campaign, we expanded the church Gathering space and added additional vesting and a Bridal/Bereavement Room. We also built The St. Bernadette Center, which includes a beautiful new gym, music classroom and Adult Faith Formation classrooms. This project was completed in 2015.
