Holy Name of Jesus Parish has provided a "Catholic alternative" since 1929. Ours is an expression of the Christian faith that combines the teachings of Jesus, the practices of Catholic tradition and the sentiments of the 21st century within a personal community where members are known by name. We are a part of a union of independent Catholic churches known as the National Catholic Church denomination. There are five other sister churches in Western Massachusetts. They are located in the communities of: Chicopee, Northampton, Ware, Webster and Westfield.
