Historia
The first priests to serve Wainwright and surrounding areas came from France at the request of Bishop Emile Legal, OMI. These priests belonged to the Society of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. They arrived in Wainwright on July 27, 1910. There were only 15 Catholic families in the district at the time and mass was said in the Beaudry General Store. A house-chapel was built in November 1910 and regular services have been held in the area ever since.
On April 5, 1915 Archbishop Emile Legal, OMI declared Wainwright canonically erected as a parish, with St. Luke as titular patron saint. The parish included the missions of Irma, Kinsella, heath and Edgerton.
On June 16, 1932 Fr. Doyle left for the States to collect enough money to build a church so that the old church could be used as a school auditorium. Sod-turning for the church took place in Sunday, Aug.7 1932.
Archbishop H.J. O’Leary blessed the new church on Sunday, Sep. 25, 1932 dedicating it to the Blessed Sacrament.
Wainwright church dedicated to St. Luke was sold to Wainwright Medical Centre on Oct. 29, 1968.
Fr. Francis Stempfle was instrumental in the planning and building of the present church. The first sod was turned in April of 1968. Work commenced on April 22nd. On Sunday December 22, 1968, Archbishop Anthony Jordan, OMI blessed the new Blessed Sacrament Church.
Between 1910 and 1932 the parish in Wainwright was known as St. Luke. With the completion of the church in 1932 the name was changed to Blessed Sacrament.
