This is an exciting moment in the life of our parish—a glimpse into a vision for a sacred space where we can gather as a community, celebrate Mass, pray, worship, and create lasting memories for generations to come.

As you view these renderings, we hope you will take a moment to imagine the possibilities and reflect on what this new church could mean for our parish family. This is more than a building; it is a place where our faith will continue to grow and where future generations will come together.

We are pleased to share the discovery of a small time capsule behind the cornerstone of St. David Church.

On January 28th, the cornerstone of Saint David Church was carefully removed. Behind the stone, a simple foil-wrapped envelope was found, containing a single typed page. Upon further examination, this page was revealed to be Saint David Parish’s very first bulletin.

The bulletin was typed by Rev. John Ronquest, the first pastor assigned to Saint David Parish, and offers a glimpse into the earliest days of the parish community.

To allow for easier reading, the original bulletin has been retyped and is available through this link.

We invite all parishioners to take a moment to view this special piece of parish history.

 

               

Immaculate Conception Church Time Capsule

Before the demolition of the Immaculate Conception Church began, a time capsule was discovered under the cornerstone on August 18th. We are truly blessed that the pastors and parishioners from 130 years ago had the foresight to leave a message for future generations. Inside the capsule were three full newspapers—two printed in German—along with a collection of coins. After the St. Louis Archdiocese Archives Department finished recording and preserving these items, we are finally able to share them with the parish.  Please enjoy exploring these remarkable pieces of our parish’s history.
