ST DOMINIC'S

The growth in population reflected in the increased attendance in St. Matthew's (in centre of Bishopbriggs, the Mother Church), and initiated discussion as early as 1966 and gradually the need for the formation of a new parish crystallised. From early March 1971, Holy Mass was celebrated every Sunday and Holy Day of obligation in St Helen's Primary School by a priest from St. Matthew's. On December 4th 1973, Fr Michael O'Keeffe was appointed Parish Priest and on December 16th 1973, in St Helen's Primary School, celebrated his first Mass as Parish Priest of the new St Dominic's Parish... 1975 saw work begin on the Church of St. Dominic. The first Mass in the completed church was celebrated on July 10th 1977 by Fr O'Keeffe... Saint Dominic's Church Bishopbriggs is a Roman Catholic parish within the Archdiocese of Glasgow.
