Founded in 1867, St. Patrick Parish has stood as a pillar of faith and community in Hubbard for over a century and a half. The parish underwent significant growth, leading to the construction of its building in 1967, symbolizing the resilience and devotion of its members.
However, tragedy struck in January 2021 when a devastating fire ravaged the beloved structure, causing millions of dollars in damage and leaving the community heartbroken. In the face of this adversity, the parishioners rallied together, determined to restore their cherished place of worship and community gathering.
The successful completion of the restoration and preservation of St. Patrick Parish project has had a positive impact on the collective spirit of the Hubbard community. Not only has the building been restored to its former glory, but the project has also served as a source of resilience, and hope among parishioners and residents alike. The revitalized St. Patrick Parish stands as a symbol of strength, faith, and community pride, ensuring that its legacy will endure for generations to come.
