Columbia Street in 1986. Built in Mission Revival architecture. Merger The diocese of San Bernardino was concerned with the concept of one community with two separated churches. Historically, each location self segregated in the 1930s. Mostly to accommodate Anglo parishioners, who dissuaded Hispanics from attending Sacred Heart Church already established. To amend this, the diocese decided to create one sole church in the City of Redlands to create unity, simplicity for worshipers and the church. They established the Holy Name of Jesus Catholic Church in 2006. Named ‘’Iglesia Catolica Santo Nombre de Jesus’’ in Spanish. Among the highlights of the merger, the parishioners hold a yearly traditional Marian procession from Columbia St. to mass at the Olive Ave. location on Our Lady of Guadalupe feast day, December 12. The 1.5 mile procession thru downtown Redlands with help from local authorities. Mostly traffic control. Relocation Announced in 2015, the church purchased a lot and is currently raising funds to relocate to a new location at the northeast side of town. A vacant lot on the northwest corner of Lugonia Avenue and Dearborn Street. The plans include a 35,000 square ft campus, a 1,500 person capacity church to service over 3,000 families and a new Sacred Heart campus to service over 600 students of the Academy. The church plans to sell its other two location sites, the old academy property and another two properties purchased in its name. The cost is budgeted at $26.4 million. Plans were to break ground in 2020. Former clergy Father Joseph Felker - 1994 to 2004 - Sacred Heart. Father Jose Cima - 1991 to 1997 - Saint Mary's. Rev.
