Historic narrative:
St. Gregory's Church began holding services in 1908 at the Maccabee Hall where a chapel was established. They dedicated this building in 1914 and were formally organized in 1916. They were a mission for the Hispanic community of Wayne County. Around 2018 the church became Our Lady of Guadalupe and serves the Latino population of our area.
