2011-08-03 - Updated through online information from Richard C Greene. -- The original stoplist has not been altered, and the console is original. The church itself dates from 1921. It is the second St. Mary-s church building. The parish dates from 1865, and is the third oldest Catholic parish in the city of St. Paul. Some of the church furnishings date to the first and second churches. The altarpiece is notable, having been shipped from Italy in 1921. The church building was in a grave state of debilitation in the late 1970s when its administration passed from the Archdiocese of St. Paul-Minneapolis to the Missionary Oblates of Mary Immaculate who are responsible for its renovation. From the late 1980s until 1995, the Hmong Catholic Community made the parish its home. -Database Manager
