Founded in
1910, St. Philip parish has tried to serve the spiritual needs of
Catholics and others of eastern Campbell County for close to one
hundred years. Parishioners pride themselves for living their
faith, maintaining an elementary school and other religious
education programs, offering a place where people can also gather to
socialize and work on projects both for the parish and for the
county. "Stewardship" as a perspective through which
they value their faith is readily seen in the way they give their
"time, talent, and treasure." Baptisms 1910-Feb 1927The Church has overlooked U.S. Route #8 for over one hundred years. "Living stones," the people of God, have kept the "brick and mortar" in shape over the years.
