The Story of Our Parish
In January of 1939, Archbishop John Gregory Murray received some exciting news. The National Eucharistic Congress was to be held in St. Paul in June, 1941 at the State Fairgrounds. Archbishop Murray, who had been considering the establishment of a parish which would contain the fairgrounds within its geographic limits, chose the name "Corpus Christi" (Body of Christ) for the host parish of this important upcoming event. Corpus Christi was officially incorporated on February 3, 1939.
Unusual construction hard to get a good picture.
