History
Holy Name Parish was founded in 1885. The present church building was completed in 1890 and it was rebuilt in 1957. It became a cathedral when the Diocese of Steubenville was established in 1945.[1][2]
On June 8, 2008 Holy Name parish was merged with Holy Rosary, St. Anthony, St. Pius X, St. Stanislaus and Servants of Christ the King parishes.[3] They formed Triumph of the Cross Parish under the leadership of the Rev. Tim McGuire. The parish worships in Holy Name Cathedral and Holy Rosary Church. The parish was undergoing the process of building a new church building. However, Bishop Jeffrey Monforton officially announced on June 21, 2013 that Holy Name Cathedral would be retained and renovated instead.[4]
