St. Thomas More Catholic Church

It became increasingly evident to the spiritual shepherds of the Boston Archdiocese that other churches and clergy needed to be provided for once sparsely settled areas as the communities surrounding Boston grew in size and population.

Religious institutions had previously underserved these areas. Therefore, on Apr. 27, 1938, His Eminence, the late William Cardinal O'Connell, created the Parish of St. Thomas More in Braintree.

Parishioners of St. Francis of Assisi in South Braintree and Sacred Heart in East Weymouth, the two parishes from which St. Thomas More was built, had been attending services at St. Francis of Assisi and Sacred Heart, respectively, before St. Thomas More was established.

The renowned English lawyer who lived at the time that King Henry VIII of England was in power inspired the selection of his name for the newly established parish, which was given in his honor.

As mentioned, St. Thomas More was canonized in 1935 by Pope Pius XI, who referred to St. Thomas More as the "Martyr of the Papacy." Within the Archdiocese of Boston, our congregation is the only one of its kind to bear this name.

On Apr. 21, 1938, Rev. Thomas A. Flynn, now known as Msgr. Flynn, serving as the pastor of St. Mary in Waltham, was the first pastor of the newly established parish.
