This Week's Schedule .................................. http://stmaryslindsay.ca/mass-schedule/#schedule History of St. Mary's Parish

The pioneer church in Ops and the vicinity of Lindsay was the Roman Catholic church. Prior to 1840 no priest was stationed locally. Lindsay and the surrounding country lay within the parish of Peterborough and it was from the latter village that pastoral expeditions came.

The first priest to visit Ops was Father Crowley, an elderly Irishman from Cork who had come out in 1825 as shepherd of the Robinson immigrants.
