History of St. Theresa Parish, Ottawa

St. Theresa's Catholic Church is a Roman Catholic church in downtown Ottawa, Canada. The church is located in the eastern section of downtown, on Somerset between Elgin Street and the Rideau Canal. The parish was founded in 1929, split off from St. Patrick's parish that had covered all of Centretown. The Romanesque Revival church building was completed that same year, designed by noted Ottawa architect W.E. Noffke.
