History
The Church of the Immaculate Heart of Mary (IHM) started as a chapel in 1953 to serve the Catholics of Serangoon 5th and 6th mile, and the Paya Lebar areas. In 1992, wings were added to the church which greatly increased the seating capacity to accommodate the growing parish. However, as the parish population increased over the decades to more than 6000, there was a pressing need to develop a new church building to cater to the growing Catholic population the church was serving. In 1999, the parish assembly approved plans to build a new church but insisted that the ‘kampong spirit’ of the church be retained, specifically – no high buildings. A Building Committee was promptly formed to start planning for the new church building. Separately, a Fund Raising Committee was formed to look into fund raising efforts to build the church . The whole church was developed at a cost of SGD 11.3 million and it has only one tall structure – the belfry.
Feast Day
IHM celebrates the Feast Day of the Immaculate Heart of Mary yearly.
