St. Philip Neri is a territorial parish of the Diocese of Saginaw, located in Coleman, Michigan, within Midland County. The parish is dedicated to Saint Philip Neri, the sixteenth-century Roman priest known as the "Apostle of Rome" and founder of the Congregation of the Oratory, celebrated for his joyful spirituality, devotion to the sacraments, and pastoral care for the poor and the young.
Serving the rural farming community of Coleman in central Michigan, St. Philip Neri continues a tradition of Catholic worship rooted in the small-town parishes that developed throughout the Saginaw region alongside the area's agricultural and lumber-based settlement.
As a diocesan territorial parish, St. Philip Neri is staffed by clergy of the Diocese of Saginaw rather than by a religious order, and it serves parishioners within its assigned geographic boundaries in and around Coleman.
History
No confirmed founding date is documented in available sources for St. Philip Neri Parish. Like many small parishes established in Michigan's Midland County, the community likely grew out of the settlement of Catholic families in the Coleman area during the late nineteenth or early twentieth century, a period marked by significant growth in rural farming and timber communities across the Diocese of Saginaw.[1]
According to the Diocese of Saginaw's parish directory, St. Philip Neri remains an active worship community serving Coleman, Michigan and the surrounding rural area of Midland County.[2]
