St. Gregory the Great History
History of St. Gregory’s Church
St. Gregory the Great Roman Catholic Church, in Picton, Ontario, was established in 1837, on land donated by the Rev. William MacAulay, Rector of the Church of England in Picton, St. Mary Magdalene Parish, to his friend, Father Lalor, the Catholic Priest.
The first stone Church was built on the site in 1837, and dedicated by Bishop MacDonnell and Bishop Ganlin in 1839.
The stone Church did duty in The County until 4 September 1892, when Archbishop Cleary laid the corner stone of the present brick Church.
The new Church was dedicated by Archbishop Cleary on 5 October 1893.
History of St. Frances Mission Church
The present Church building of St. Frances of Rome, was built in 1830 and dedicated in July 1844. The Catholic Church has been present within the Parish boundaries since 1668 thanks to the efforts of Missionaries from France, who established the “Kente Mission”—a 349 year presence!

I am in Thy Presence
Help me, Lord, to remember that Christianity is not to be confined to the church ... nor exercised only in prayer and meditation, but that everywhere I am in Thy Presence.
