St. Michael is a territorial parish of the Diocese of Reno, serving Catholics in the Stead area north of Reno, Nevada. The parish is dedicated to Saint Michael the Archangel, the great prince and defender of the people of God venerated in Catholic tradition as the leader of the heavenly host.
Located in Washoe County at 14075 Mount Vida Street, the parish sits within a rapidly developing residential area on the northern edge of the Reno-Sparks metropolitan region. No specific founding date is documented in available sources, though the parish's presence in the diocese's official parish directory confirms it as an active, functioning territorial community.[1]
As with other parishes in the Diocese of Reno, St. Michael serves the pastoral, sacramental, and educational needs of Catholics within its assigned territorial boundaries.
History
Limited historical documentation is publicly available for St. Michael parish. According to the Diocese of Reno's official parish directory, the parish is located at 14075 Mt. Vida Street in the Stead area of Reno, Nevada.[2] No confirmed founding date, founding pastor, or early parish history is documented in available sources. The Stead area developed in the decades following the closure of Stead Air Force Base in the 1960s, and Catholic parishes in northern Washoe County generally trace their establishment to the diocese's response to population growth in the greater Reno area during the latter twentieth century, though this specific parish's founding circumstances are not documented in sources available for this article.
