As Archbishop James J. Keane became aware of their difficulty, he directed the Franciscan pastors of Saint Mary’s to build a church-school farther north and sell the downtown Saint Mary’s buildings. By the early 1920s the German immigrants had overcome the language problem and the growing number of Catholics in southeast Waterloo desired a church in their area. The first Mass of the new church was celebrated on August 10, 1924, and Archbishop Keane dedicated the church to Saint John the Evangelist three weeks later.”
