St Joseph's

            The third St. Joseph's church building in New Waverly Texas was built in 1905. Soon after his arrival in 1902, Father Bily wanted the congregation to build a new church as a “thanksgiving by the people of St. Joseph’s for having been brought together into a successful community, for having been given a parish, and for having been allowed to live as a free people in a great country.” And they did. Architect L. S. Green planned the Gothic structure which cost $13,000 excluding the altars and stained-glass windows. Three years after laying the cornerstone, the church was judged the finest and best in the South upon its dedication on December 16, 1906 (Huntsville Post-Item, Dec. 14, 1906). The parish had grown to about 125 families at that time.
