About St. Therera's Parish, High Level

St. Theresa's parish can be traced back to 1956 when it started as an outstation of Holy Ghost Cathedral Makurdi as a small church in a thatched hut located at Luka, the premises now occupied by Tarka Foundation and the public square. In that same year it was relocated to low-level opposite St. Theresa's Primary School to pave way for other developmental needs. It was later again moved to High Level in 1967 on the instructions of the then Bishop Revd Dr. D.J. Murray (of blessed memory).

Between 1956 and 1980 when St. Theresa's Church was an outstation of Holy Ghost Cathedral, the following priests came as visiting priests to the outstation; Father John Briene, CSsp, Revd Father Francis Bligh,CSsp,  Revd Father Avery Gerard, CSsp, Father Frarey, Cssp, Father Sherwood, CSsp, Father Stephen Beba, Father Dennis Num of blessed memory.
