Saint Aloysius Church 223 Beech Street Pottstown, PA 19464 610-326-5877 A brief history of Saint Aloysius Parish St. Aloysius Parish was the first Catholic Church established in Pottstown, Pennsylvania when the first church building was dedicated in 1856. Our current church building was dedicated in December 1891. The cornerstone of St. Aloysius School was laid in January 1913 and the present rectory was constructed in the early 1900s after a fire destroyed the original. Our parish has over 3,000 registered families, which represents an increase of about 10% over the past two years. Our parish school has 410 students enrolled and our Religious Education Program consists of 300 students. We have numerous ministries and activities that address the spiritual and social needs of our parishioners.
