Most Pure Heart of Mary Catholic Church, Neoclassical Catholic church in Mobile, United States
The Most Pure Heart of Mary Catholic Church features symmetrical design with grand columns, high ceilings, and stained glass windows depicting biblical scenes.
Founded in 1899 by the Society of St. Joseph of the Sacred Heart, the church building was completed in 1908 to serve Mobile's Creoles of African descent.
The Knights of Peter Claver, the largest Black Catholic organization in the United States, originated from this parish in 1909.
The church schedules Mass services on Saturdays at 4:00 PM and 5:30 PM, and on Sundays at 7:30 AM, 9:30 AM, and 11:30 AM.
The church became a central meeting location for the Neighborhood Organized Workers during the Civil Rights Movement, supporting African American equality initiatives.
