St. Patrick's Church is a historic church building at 1598 South Main Street in Fall River, Massachusetts. It was built in 1881 from local Fall River granite, and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.

St. Patrick's Parish was established in 1873, as a division of St. Mary's Parish, a predominantly Irish congregation.[2] In 2002, the church was part of a three-parish merger between St. Patrick's, Blessed Sacrament, and Our Lady of the Angels. The new parish is named Parish of the Good Shepherd. In 2018, it became part of the Catholic Community of Central Fall River', a collaborative of parishes that includes Good Shepherd, the Cathedral of St. Mary of the Assumption, and St. Stanislaus Parish and School.[3]
