In August 2018, St. Theresa's Church and Rectory along with many resident homes in Telegraph Creek were destroyed by a wildfire.

By the grace of God and many generous donors, we are pleased to tell you that the construction of the new church and rectory is complete and the Grimard Family have moved back to Telegraph Creek.  The Dedication of the church and altar, originally scheduled for November 28, 2020, has been delayed to Covid-19 health restrictions.  Please check back regularly for details.

More information about the wildfire damage can be found in these articles:
