Our story began in 1956

Rev. Walter Arnold celebrated our first Mass in a converted Texas gun club on Goodland Street in Farmers Branch— a building that later became the city’s first public library. By the late 1950’s our parish was already laying down strong roots. A permanent priests’ residence, chapel and cafeteria rose on the current property, signaling a growing and committed community.

In 1957 the parish began preparing for a school by recruiting dedicated teachers. What started as a small mustard seed of faith grew quickly into a thriving parish. In 1959 we broke ground on our permanent home on Valwood Parkway & Dennis Lane, beginning what has now become the vibrant parish and school community we cherish today.
