To Jesus Through Mary

Beginning in 1882, the Catholic Church has served the needs of the people of Bethel from a living room parlor on Grassy Plain Street, to the Church on Greenwood Avenue, to our current Church on Dodgingtown Road. Being the only Catholic Church in the town of Bethel, our parish community reaches to the surrounding towns of Danbury, Brookfield, Newtown and Redding. St. Mary Parish Center includes a beautiful church seating 850 worshippers, a parish hall, an active and thriving school and rectory.
