Our history
The first Community service was without a priest and 150 persons were in attendance; it was held at the Festac Post Office Venue.
History has it that the current location called Festac Town was developed by the Federal Government of Nigeria to host the 2nd World Black and African Festival of Arts and Culture (FESTAC) which was held in 1977.
Holy Family Priests and Sisters
The labours and fruits of the little gathering of a few enthusiast Catholics about four (4) decades ago is currently being enjoyed as a great parish – Holy Family Catholic Church. The Journey has been long and tough but the results have been fulfilling.
Our parish is blessed with many young men and women who have answered the call of consecrated life and are graced with the sacrament of the Holy Order. Holy Family has always been interested in the vocations of our youths. Please pray for them!
Holy Family Parish has been blessed with great men of God who have steered the pastoral and administrative ship of the parish to the admirable and amiable heights. We thank God for them all.
