St. Thomas the Apostle<\/h1>\n

On February 21, 1947 Father David Sullivan was appointed as the founding pastor of the new St. Thomas the Apostle Church to serve the northern part of Mobile County. Defense Industries of the early 1940\u2019s had brought an influx of new residents to the Village of Chickasaw, and Bishop Toolen saw the need for a church there. Until then, local Catholics had attended St. Bridget\u2019s Catholic Church\u00a0<\/em>in the neighboring town of Whistler. As the population grew, the priest from Whistler, Father Littleton, came to offer 9am mass in Chickasaw on Sunday at whatever location was available.<\/p>\n

The young Father Sullivan soon won the hearts of parishioners with his deep spirituality and dedication to the new parish. Eight lots with 40 feet fronting Craft Highway were purchased from the owners of all the land in Chickasaw at the time, Gulf Shipbuilding Corp. The parishioners offered ready support to the dream of building a church. The men of the parish offered their labor to build the church after their regular eight-hour a day jobs were finished. On May 14, 1949, (Mother\u2019s Day), the permanent church was dedicated.<\/p>\n

From the establishment of the parish, another dream was forming about a parish school. Some of the children went to Mobile area Catholic Schools. Father Sullivan and the parishioners went to work refurbishing a Quonset hut to serve as the first parish school. On Tuesday, September 6, 1959, the new St. Thomas the Apostle school opened. The Dominican Sisters from Sinsinaw, Wisconsin<\/a>\u00a0came to serve the new parish and school. After 30 years, with the drop in enrollment, the school closed in 1989.<\/p>\n
