Former churches

  • Our Mother of Mercy Church (Port Bolivar, Bolivar Peninsula[21]) - It was established circa 1950.

Lomax described it as "a dowdy, declining parish".[124] Archbishop Joseph Fiorenza had it razed, despite the lack of damage from the hurricane.[21] The archdiocese argued that keeping the structure would cause further expenses, and that future weather issues could damage the building.[17] Lomax wrote "the archdiocese viewed the church as old and in the way".[124] He added that former members of the congregation had a negative reception to the demolition and the consolidation to the Our Lady By The Sea site at Crystal Beach.[21]
