About this church

St. Aloysius Catholic Church in Bessemer, Alabama celebrates Mass in English on Saturday at 4:30 p.m. and Sunday at 9:30 a.m., and in Spanish on Sunday at 12 noon. Weekday Mass is offered on Monday at 6:30 p.m. and from Tuesday through Friday at noon, and confessions are heard on Saturday from 3:30 to 4 p.m. The church sits at 751 Academy Drive, just off Interstate 20/59, in a building completed in 1992 after an earlier church was lost to fire. The parish was organized in 1886 by Italian and Irish immigrants, and it now counts more than 400 registered families in the Diocese of Birmingham.

The website includes a Ministerio Hispano page for the Spanish-speaking community and a sacraments page for questions about baptism, marriage, and other sacraments. Adults curious about the Catholic faith can contact the OCIA instructor listed on the site, and the website links to the Coming Home Network for further resources. A weekly bulletin is posted online for news and announcements, and online donations are accepted. The parish school operated from 1912 to 2018, and the church continues to serve the community through its parish ministries. The office is open weekdays, with a midday break. Confirm Mass times with the parish office or website before visiting.
