On August 24, 1919 a frame dwelling house was purchased at the corner of Birdsall and Clinton streets in Norwich NY and converted into a small " Mission-school-chapel " as it was called by Father Tiernan. This makeshift house of worship was blessed on St. Bartholomew's day,August 24, 1919 by Father Tiernan. From this humble beginning emerged the Magnificent Little Cathedral which was dedicated by Monsignor Curley on November 27, 1927
