Once a community of 5 churches, North Adams has experienced significant changes throughout the years including the closing of five Catholic churches and consolidation into one.
The renovation/restoration project of the former Saint Anthony of Padua church is our opportunity to unite as a community and solidify our inclusivity as a parish. However, it's equally important that we don't forget where we came from and to share our memories with those who may never had been to Saint Anthony, Saint Francis, Notre Dame du Sacre Coeur, Our Lady of Mercy, Our Lady of the Incarnation & Holy Family.
We invite parishioners to submit their photos of the churches they belonged to whether it be of the church structure, special holidays, parish life, Sacraments, etc. Please submit all photos electronically in jpeg format to: stelizabethofhungaryna@gmail.com
(As photos are submitted, we will update accordingly.)
