Very nice large building and parish. Entire complex has church, very fine cemetery, and a Community Life Annex. Parish established in 1911. Brief history, taken from the diocese website, located here states: By the early 1870s, the Catholic population of the Schriever community was large enough for a chapel of its own. Father Charles Menard and the area families built St. Bridget’s Chapel in 1876. The present church was dedicated in 1955. Adjacent to the church building is the rectory. The Community Life Annex was completed in Jan., 1983.
