St. Matthew > News > A Fond Farewell to Father Davis

Father Davis has been appointed Parochial Administrator of Immaculate Conception Catholic Church in Forest City, North Carolina, beginning July 1, 2026.

He has faithfully served as Parochial Vicar of our parish since 2014. Throughout his time with us, he has been a joyful and uplifting presence. His warm smile, jovial personality, love of sports and deep pride in our parish community have touched the lives of so many. While we will greatly miss seeing him around campus, we are filled with gratitude for his ministry and know he will be a tremendous blessing to his new parish.

Receptions honoring Father Davis are June 21 after the 11 am Mass at the Waxhaw campus and June 28  after the 9 and 10:45 am Masses at the main campus. We hope you will join us in thanking him for his years of faithful service and wishing him well in this next chapter of priestly ministry.
