St Francis of Assisi Parish, Paddington, NSW, Australia

St Francis of Assisi Parish in Paddington, New South Wales, Australia is a Roman Catholic community possessing one of the most significant youth outreach centres (the Come in Centre) and one of the finest parish choirs in Australia.
==The foundation of the parish==
The foundations stone was blessed and laid on March 23, 1889, a ceremony attended by about 1000 people. Cardinal Moran officially opened the new church on Sunday, June 22, 1890, although only the nave had been completed.

The new church, described as Italian or Tuscan Gothic, had an impressive facade facing Oxford Street. Coloured marble was incorporated into the basic sandstone and red tuck-pointed brick structure, and Venetian glass mosaics filled the spandrels around the rose window. The mosaics depicted symbols of the four Evangelists and the coat of arms of the Franciscan Order, according to an article in The Builders and Contractors News of June 28, 1890. Unfortunately, all of the mosaics have long disappeared, victims of time and pollution.
The Freeman's Journal said that "When completed with transepts and sanctuary the church will be one of the largest in Sydney". But the 1890 church was never to be completed. In its incomplete state it soon became over-crowded, despite the celebration of five Masses each Sunday. (Canon Law at the time prohibited the celebration of Mass after midday.)
Archbishop Kelly, therefore decided in 1915 that the church should be completed, despite wartime conditions. It was obvious, though, that even if the church were to be completed according to Barlow's plans it would still be too small for Paddington's Catholic population.
A new church was therefore commissioned, designed by Bart Moriarty, but it was to be constructed in two phases. Phase 1 included the sanctuary, sacristies and transepts. Phase 2 would have required the demolition of the 1890 church to make way for the far grander nave of Moriarty's design. The foundation stone was laid on the last Sunday of July, 1917.
