St. Patrick's Catholic Church, Casper Wyoming






St. Patrick's Catholic Church in Casper Wyoming was completed in 1962. The church came about due to the expansion of Casper in the 1950s, and this church is the newest of the three Roman Catholic churches in Casper. Unlike Our Lady of Fatiima, which represented an expansion to the west side of Casper, this church is located in east Casper.

Plans for the church commenced in 1955. Like Our Lady of Fatima, a school was constructed on the site but was never used as a regular grade school. The church is also the largest of the three Catholic churches in Casper, having a very large interior.

    Rob, This is Pat (sorry) and that was my reply above. Marcus and I are both on these blogs as we started the Painted Bricks blog as a joint project. It is supposed to indicate that the comments are from Marcus and I, and I guess the post replies must come up that way too, but it is me (Pat). I should have signed my reply.

    I wondered if you still checked in at SMH and had thought about emailing you recently. It's good to hear from you.
