St. Thomas of Villanova Church in Manuels in the home of the newly created parish of St. Edward's, which is an amalgamation of two parishes in Conception Bay South, St. Edward's in Kelligrews, St. Thomas of Villanova in Manuels and Holy Family in Paradise.ST. JOHN'S, N.L. — Three Roman Catholic parishes in the St. John’s metropolitan region became one parish this past weekend, and one parishioner involved says it will help the parishioners.
Monika Behr, a parishioner of the new parish who is also on the liturgical committee, said they used the name St. Edward’s because it was the name of the original parish on the shore of Conception Bay South in the late 1800s. It seemed appropriate to keep that name, she said, and continue the tradition.
They held a ceremony at the church in Manuels this past weekend to mark the creation of the new parish, followed by a social event.
