On the urging of Maria von Trapp, ground for the present church building was broken in 1948.See Blessed Sacrament Church and all Stowe has to offer by arranging your trip with our Stowe attractions app.
The first Mass in this building was held on March 6,1949. In 1954,it became an independent parish. For the prior 50 years, Blessed Sacrament was a mission to Morrisville. Mass was celebrated in the local town hall basement.
Two young Burlington architects, Whittier and Goodrich, designed the church building. The windows, walls and ceilings were painted and decorated by internationally renowned French artist Andre Girard. The paintings depict the life of Brother Dutton, a native of Stowe.
In 2005 the church was renovated and expanded while conserving its architectural heritage.
Blessed Sacrament Church was built on the property that formally belonged to the farm on which Brother Dutton was born. The church is dedicated to him.

5.15.22 Every Catholic Church is different inside and out so that's why I enjoy visiting as many as I can. This was probably my 70th+ different Catholic Church and what a beautiful experience. Inside was all wood and not your traditional stained glass. What was most amazing was the priest. He was personable and gave a beautiful homily. As a visitor I could tell how much his parishioners adored him.

Amazing mass as always.. Father Paul's singing at the end of the mass is stupendous "may the blessings of the Lord be upon you...".
