Parish History |
| On December
4, 1944, Monsignor John J. McCarthy was named the first
pastor of Blessed Sacrament Parish that included all areas
west of the Ashley River. The first chapel and rectory were
located at 149 Savannah Highway in Byrnes Downs. The parish
began with 40 families. The present auditorium was completed
on February 22, 1946 and dedicated for temporary use as a
church on April 14 of that same year, although the first
masses within its walls were celebrated on Christmas Day,
1945. The parish then had grown to between 500 and 600
members. |
