The City of Saint Jude Parish provides hope for the hopeless by proclaiming to everyone we encounter that no-one is truly without hope who has a relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ.
We are the City of Saint Jude Catholic Parish located in Montgomery, AL. Begun by Father Harold Purcell in 1934 as a Catholic mission to the African-American Community, we continue to proclaim to everyone we encounter that no-one is without hope who has a relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ.
Saint Jude was the final stop for the Selma to Montgomery Marchers before arriving at the State Capitol on March 24, 1965. No other organization in Montgomery, public or private, was willing to take such a bold stand. Because of the City of Saint Jude's ongoing commitment to human rights and social justice, Father Purcell’s vision of a "city" that would provide exceptional care and assistance to the African-American community of Montgomery and the broader Deep South was exemplified for the world to see.
