Blessed Sacrament Catholic Church is a Catholic parish church located at 1460 Pearson Avenue Southwest in West End Birmingham. Jim Booth is parish priest and administrator.

The Parish was founded in 1911 by members of the Catholic Ladies Club, who erected the first building for worship in October of that year.

In 1930 a new Romanesque-style brick building was constructed for the parish. It hosted its first mass on February 17 of that year. Interior furnishing and stained glass windows for the church were completed during the 1950s. The structure was added to the Alabama Register of Landmarks and Heritage in 2016.

Blessed Sacrament's Brother Christopher inaugurated the Toy Bowl Association youth football league.
