in 2002 as a memorial to a former pastor, the Rev. Mark Swanson. A new parish hall was built in 2006. Architecture St. Patrick's Church is a sandstone structure. The stones vary in color from beige to brown. They are roughly cut and measure to in length and to in width. The main facade features a central, double-door entryway that is flanked by two single-door entryways. The two side entrances were closed in a renovation project between 1959 and 1960. The facade is divided into three bays by four non load-bearing buttresses. Lancet windows are located above all three entryways with three windows located in the central bay. There are six-pointed arch windows located along the east and west elevations of the church. The north elevation features a rose window, which can no longer be seen on the interior because of a dropped ceiling and wall that were added to the church's interior in 1956.
