St. Mary Church has been serving Walnut Creek since before the city existed! The small mission church was built on Main Street in 1884, and in 1940 the current church building was constructed to accommodate a growing congregation. The church has gone through several changes to meet the needs of our community, including the addition of a top-rated K-8 school which was built in the 1960's.
With a vibrant ministerial life, liturgies which appeal to varied demographics and a sacred environment in which to worship, St. Mary Parish continues to evolve with the community growing around it, while embracing the history and tradition of the church. We are here to serve and emit Christ's Light to all.
