History

Established before 1930
First church: 1950
First parish priest: 1950

After the war, several hundred houses were built in this new Moncton neighbourhood for returning soldiers, and the entire area experienced a revival. Two large buildings from Air Force Camp 31 were purchased and converted into the first church, which was dedicated to Christ the King in 1947. This chapel was under the jurisdiction of the cathedral.
The parish was established in 1950. In 1959, a fire completely destroyed Christ the King Church. The new church was opened for worship on July 29, 1962.
The construction of this church marked the advent of a new modernism in church architecture. Its sloping roofs and large windows, along with the layout of the chancel and nave, have contributed to making this building a landmark in Moncton's architectural diversity. This church also houses works by the renowned artist Jordi Bonet: the ceramics in the entrance hall and the Stations of the Cross are his creations.
