Saint Sebastian Church History
With a large number of Italian Immigrants coming to Middletown and the desire for a Church of their own in 1925, several committees were organized to solicit funds to build an Italian, and through weekly Sunday solicitations from the Italian Families of Middletown, they raised $85,000. Bishop John J. Nilan approved the request after a second time a delegation was sent to Hartford for approval to build a Church for the Italian Community. After additional monies were raised during a time of economic depression the location of the Church was selected and approved by the Bishop of Hartford. Raymond C. Gorrani of Massachusetts was selected as the Architect for the Church and Salvatore Mazzotta, a local contractor was asked to build the church, and local artisans assisted in the donation of materials to build the Church. The First Mass was held on December 06, 1931, by Father Santolini. The First Pastor of the Church was Father Rocco Guerriero. The Feast of Saint Sebastian was one of the reasons why the Church was founded. The mortgage of the Church was paid in full in 1949 under the Pastorate of Father John J. Keane, the second Pastor of the Parish.

Grant us grace
0 Lord our God, grant us grace to desire Thee with our whole heart; that, so desiring, we may seek, and seeking find Thee; and so finding Thee may love Thee; and loving Thee, may hate those sins from which Thou hast redeemed us.
