St. Paul's Roman Catholic Church

Rev. Ronald MacGillivray, a Roman Catholic Priest, was the pastor from 1859 to 1885, of a large parish of St. Joseph's which included Sherbrooke, as Sherbrooke had no Roman Catholic Church building. St. Paul's Roman Catholic Church was built at the gold mines at Goldenville in 1871 and in 1907 was moved to Sherbrooke where it served until 1961. The Rev. Moses N. Loyle is remembered as visiting the Sherbrooke Church as a mission of Lochaber. On Labour Day 1961 the old church was demolished and the new one built on its foundation, and was blessed on December 10^th, 1961.⁽¹⁰⁵⁾
