After years in limbo, Old St. Pat's came back under the ownership of the Roman Catholic Diocese earlier this year. The latest news is that the RC Diocese of Calgary has entered into an agreement with a Russian Orthodox parish in Calgary to lease St. Patrick’s Church. "The Russian Orthodox parish has been in discussions with our department and is very keen to begin work on restoring the building," according to Matthew Wangler, Manager, Historic Places Research and Designation Program, Alberta Culture and Community Spirit, Historic Resources Management Branch.

This week I've spotted multiple cars parked outside and yesterday a dumpster appeared.
The north facing side of the building has had the plywood removed from the top windows and they are now covered in plastic, as is the round window over the front door.

Not sure if someone is fixing it up or tearing it down. Have yet to be able to corner any of the workers to see whats happening.

Anyone know ?

Synagogue is safe; now what about St. Patrick's?
Calgary Herald - letter to the editor
June 30, 2009

Re: "Little synagogue begins new life," June 28.

Congratulations to all those responsible for the saving and restoration of this priceless icon of Alberta's rich history. It is wonderful that this little 1916 synagogue will find a peaceful home at Heritage Park. Why isn't it possible to arrange for a similar restoration and relocation to Heritage Park of the 1905 St. Patrick's Church in Midnapore? This poor, derelict church needs to be rescued before it is destroyed by vandalism.

Richard Cuthbertson and Eva Ferguson, Calgary Herald
Published: Friday, May 02, 2008
Hugh McKevitt had no idea how hard it would be to preserve the church.

He grew up attending Old St. Patrick's, founded in 1905 and located just off Macleod Trail.

But the church has been empty for years (last holding services in the early 1980s, McKevitt believes) and fell into decay.

It had become the victim of vandalism; pockmarked with graffiti, its woodwork virtually destroyed.

Now, Old St. Patrick's, a provincial heritage site, has garnered a dubious distinction.

It ranks among the top 10 endangered places in Canada, according to the 2008 list compiled by the Heritage Canada Foundation, a non-profit organization seeking to preserve historic buildings and places across Canada.

Two years ago, McKevitt and a small group of people with close ties to the church founded the Old St. Patrick's Preservation Society.

Their goal: give the church a new coat of paint, repair the roof and do some restoration.

That hasn't happened, and little has changed in the past two years, aside from some added security.

"It turned out to be a much bigger challenge than we expected," said McKevitt, who remembers a time when each family sat in the same place every Sunday in the church, which seats approximately 75.

The issue, McKevitt said, is the church is owned by Memorial Gardens Canada, a subsidiary of Arbor Memorial Services.

McKevitt said the funeral service company has not allowed preservation society members to restore the church due to liability issues.

The company's vice-president acknowledged Thursday that liability is one of the concerns. Gary Carmichael said Arbor bought the property in the mid-1990s from the Catholic Diocese.

The church was supposed to be removed by the diocese, but that didn't happen.

Now, Carmichael said, the company is in preliminary discussions with the diocese about simply returning Old St. Patrick's to the diocese.

Meanwhile, a spokeswoman with the Heritage Canada Foundation said preservation of such buildings must take priority.

"Too many historic places in Canada have been in a state of siege," Carolyn Quinn said.

She said there is economic value in keeping heritage buildings.

Residents are more interested in moving to communities with older buildings, they provide character, and tourists are also more interested, she said.

Father Lacombe's old church deserves to be restored

Calgary Herald - letter to the editor


Monday, February 11, 2008


Re: "Buildings gain historic designation," Feb. 5.

The city's land use planning and transportation committee is to be congratulated for its efforts to grant historical status to the 1914 St. Louis Hotel and its beloved beer parlour, thus honouring Col. James Walker, who was responsible for its construction. It would also be commendable if this committee would direct its attention to the St. Patrick's Church in Midnapore, built in 1905, which is in desperate need of restoration. Father Albert Lacombe's contribution to our history deserves recognition as well.

H.M.J. Nijssen,

Calgary
