Cornerstone blessing for Little Flower church

A memory from St. Mary School in Lanesville

This photo depicts the blessing of the cornerstone of St. Therese of the Infant Jesus (Little Flower) Church in Indianapolis on Nov. 26, 1961. Archbishop Paul C. Schulte can be seen in procession to the area where the future altar would stand, which is marked by a cross made from construction materials. The new church, which was completed in July 1962, was the first permanent church building for the parish, which was founded in 1925. The church building is still in use today.
