Also known as the Church of the Holy Father, this religious building, together with the adjoining "Regina Margherita" orphanage, formerly a convent, was built in Gela with a single nave and bell tower in 1738 by the PP. Minims of St. Francis of Paola.

The facade of the church is characterized by an elegant portal in the late Baroque style dominated by the coat of arms of the religious order of the saint. Inside there are several statues and some eighteenth-century paintings.

Adjacent and communicating with the church is the Regina Margherita di Gela Orphanage, an eighteenth-century building with a large internal courtyard, originally a convent of the Minim Fathers, which in addition to having permanently hosted orphan girls, was also the seat of the nursery and various schools .
