St. Patrick

St. Patrick Church has anchored Wilmington, Delaware's urban core since its founding in 1880, and its Victorian-era stone building — carefully restored in 2013 — still stands largely as it did at its 1882 completion. The parish holds a distinctive place in the Diocese of Wilmington as one of the few offering both the Ordinary Form and the Extraordinary Form (Traditional Latin Mass), with EF Masses on Sundays, weekday evenings, First Fridays, and First Saturdays. Through the Saint Patrick Center and an active St. Vincent de Paul Society, the community maintains a long-standing commitment to serving Wilmington's homeless and poor.
