Crucifixion Catholic Church is a territorial parish of the Diocese of Saint Augustine, located in the Edgewood area of Jacksonville, Florida. Unlike parishes named for a particular saint, Crucifixion Parish takes its dedication from the central event of Christian salvation history—the crucifixion of Jesus Christ—reflecting a theological rather than hagiographic patronage.
Founded in 1974, the parish has served Catholics in Duval County for several decades. As a territorial parish, it ministers to Catholics residing within its assigned geographic boundaries rather than to a particular ethnic, linguistic, or national community.
The parish continues to serve as a place of worship and sacramental life for the local Catholic community on Jacksonville's west side.

According to the Diocese of Saint Augustine, Crucifixion Parish was established in 1974 to serve the growing Catholic population in the Edgewood section of Jacksonville, Florida.[1] No confirmed details regarding the parish's founding pastor, original building campaign, or early community milestones are documented in available sources.
Over the decades since its founding, the parish has remained a fixture of Catholic life in west Jacksonville, though comprehensive historical records detailing its development are not readily available in public sources.
