A short history of St. Joseph's Chaldean Catholic Church
The church was purchased through the
support of our parishioners in London Ontario. The idea of buying the
church was presented in the early 1990s, and endorsed by Bishop Zora,
shepherd of the Good Shepherd Chaldean Church in Toronto. At that time
the Toronto church was the Chaldean Community's
only available church to attend for masses, baptisms, or other parish
services. Therefore some of the brothers decided that buying a church
would be a wise idea even though the community's
families numbered only seventy. The idea was welcomed by all. After
taking over the responsibility of the parish from Father David, Father
Balo, with the help of Bishop Ebrahim of St. Thomas Chaldean Catholic
Church in Michigan, endeavored to buy the church from the Catholic
Parish of London Ontario. The name was changed from St. Joseph's
Catholic Church to St. Joseph's Chaldean Catholic Church. Presently
there are more than 100 families belonging to the parish under the
spiritual guidance of Father Amer.
