The Immaculate Heart of Mary community of Harlingen, Texas, was granted the status of parish 91 years ago in 1927.

​

This was the first Catholic parish in the city of Harlingen.  From this parish the following parishes were  created through the years: taking the East, Saint Anthony in 1940; taking the South and the West, Our Lady of the Assumption in 1958; taking the North, Queen of Peace in 1967.

​

The parish was originally named Sacred Heart of Mary until about 1955 when it was changed to Immaculate Heart of Mary.
