He was given permission by Atlanta Bishop Francis E. Hyland to begin the process. In 1965, the Hutcheson brothers offered their old drugstore building, located on South Main Street in Jonesboro, to be used as a site for St. Philip Benizi Mission Church. There, on September 12, 1965, Father Daniel J. O'Connor celebrated the first Mass on South Main Street.
It was soon evident that a larger facility was needed to accommodate the overflow of people. A committee was formed to search for a suitable site for a new church, and, in September of 1966, the building committee purchased 23.0 acres of land on Flint River Road. Construction on the building began in January of 1967, and was completed on April 30, 1967. This building, which served as the first church, is now our Parish Hall. The new building was blessed in the Fall of 1967 by Archbishop Paul J. Hallinan.
