St. Philip the Apostle History
On June 19, 1957, Father Joseph L. Teletchea was appointed pastor of a new parish in the area of Camp Springs, Maryland. On June 28, 1957, St. Philip the Apostle Parish was officially established, drawing an estimated 600 families from four existing parishes.
For nearly two years, Sunday Masses were offered at a nearby school. Daily Mass, baptisms, religious instruction, and parish meetings were held at the rectory which was located in the neighborhood while negotiations were underway for the purchase of 9.98 acres nearby. In August 1958, ground was broken for the new church; its doors were opened for the Easter Vigil on March 28, 1959. In 1960, St. Philip the Apostle School was founded; classes were held at La Reine High School. Construction began in the spring of 1962, and the school opened in September of that year.
The parish flourished through the 1960s and 1970s to a population in excess of 1300 families. The 1980s saw a decline the beginning of the demographic changes to the current 500 families.
The dynamics which accompanied the establishment and growth of the parish still remain today. Our parish is an active, vibrant faith community which ministers to Catholics as well as reaching out to the community in general. St. Philip the Apostle Parish reaches a wide variety of people through our proximity to the Branch Avenue Metro station, the National Capitol Beltway, and Joint Base Andrews. New members and guests are always welcome to join us for Mass or stop by for a visit!
