Interview of David Faller for the Elizabeth V. and George F. Gardner Digital Library of the Cumberland County Historical Society and the St. Patrick's Church of Carlisle, Pennsylvania. David discusses growing up in Carlisle and attend Saint Patrick's School and Church as well as coming back to both Carlisle, PA and St. Patrick's as an adult.
The year 1993 marked the centennial of the building of St. Patrick's Shrine Church in Carlisle. Just as the Rev. Dr. Henry G. Ganss published a comprehensive history of the parish in 1895, so it was deemed appropriate to prepare a brief history of the present church and its people during the last century.
