Cardinal Spellman dedicates the new St. Frances of Rome, built on its predecessor's foundation
The parish of St. Frances of Rome in Wakefield was founded in 1898. Its current church, designed by architect Paul W. Reilly, was raised on the foundation of the parish's earlier cruciform church and dedicated in 1967 by Francis Cardinal Spellman. The building opened with a new pipe organ made by the Delaware Organ Company.
