Parish History
Annunciation of Our Lord Parish was founded on October 1, 1977 by Bishop Paul Reding. Father John Dwyer was appointed the first Pastor of the parish. Sunday Masses were held in the gym at Saint Jerome’s School for the first four years until the church and rectory were completed and dedicated in May of 1981. Over the ensuing years the parish grew, paid of the mortgage on the building and in 2012 a new parish centre and adoration chapel for completed and opened. The parish was named after Our Lady of the Annunciation, the patroness of the Diocese of Hamilton and when it was dedicated, it was the 125th parish, dedicated in the 125th year of the diocese. We now look with anticipation to the future, as we celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Parish’s founding in 2027.
