Our Lady of Guadalupe Church (Queen Creek, Arizona)

Our Lady of Guadalupe Catholic Church, located at 20615 East Ocotillo Road near the intersection of South Ellsworth Loop Road in Queen Creek, Arizona, was the first Roman Catholic Church in the town.

At first, they met in old barracks buildings courtesy of the school district, which had bought them from Williams Air Force Base for classrooms, a cafeteria, and an auditorium.

The visiting priest would hold mass and hear confessions in the auditorium, and nuns used the classrooms in the summer for catechism classes.

The people of the congregation built the new church, and another wooden barracks was obtained from the base and moved next to it.

In 1975, the church building was deemed to be unsafe, and the insurance company refused to renew its policy.
