Before August 1955

Originally our church was located on Main Street of Union City, CT until was washed away in August 1955 by the flood. Here is how the church building looked.

When the water dried up

Not too much left after the flood except the stairs and the church bell.

Mass at the cemetery

Since the people had no church building to worship they gathered at the cemetery and celebrated Holy Mass.
