About St. Mary's Catholic Church
St. Mary's Catholic Church was founded in 1876 to serve Polish immigrants settling near Bremond. The congregation built a first church in 1879, then replaced it with this Gothic edifice in 1908 under the leadership of Fathers A. Krypajtis and I. J. Szymanski. Parishioners contributed labor and funds, and the earlier building afterward served as the parish school.
