Gazing upon St Clement Catholic Church, one can almost hear the echoes of its early days. St Clement Catholic Church wasn’t tied to a single ethnic group. It emerged from St. Anthony of Padua, embracing diversity from its inception. Records show that English was always spoken within its walls. Founded in 1902, the congregation initially gathered in a modest wooden structure at 25th Avenue and Quincy St. NE. The church’s story continued in 1913. A brick edifice arose at 24th Avenue and Jackson St. NE, capable of accommodating 600 souls. Interestingly, their original wooden church found a new purpose in 1915. It was acquired by St. Hedwig’s and relocated to 29th Avenue and Grand St. This act symbolizes the spirit of community and shared faith that has marked St Clement Catholic Church’s journey.
