Abstract
Description
During the 1920s. Spring Lake became a magnet that attracted hundreds of Catholic vacationers from the urban areas of New York and Philadelphia. In the ensuing years, it became more of a year-round residential community.
With this situation in mind, the then Bishop of Trenton, Most Reverend John J. McMahon advised the Pastor, Monsignor Thomas U. Reilly, to plan a summer Church to be erected at the north end of Spring Lake. Several locations were considered before the property at Ludlow and Third Avenues was purchased and incorporated in 1929.
The laying of the cornerstone and dedication took place on June 29, 1930.
