Title A name given to the resource St. John's Parish (Waterloo, Iowa) Description An account of the resource “When many Waterloo Catholics located in the northern part of the city in the early 1900s, they found it difficult to reach the church and school downtown. 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.” - Rev. Msgr.

Title A name given to the resource St. Thomas Aquinas (Ames, Iowa) Description An account of the resource "In 1899 the pastor of the Gilbert parish, Father Henry C. Eckhart, celebrated the first Mass in the Ames community. The Gilbert church and rectory were in the country, some miles from the town of Gilbert. Father Eckhart was followed by Father Francis C. Renier, who had charge of three Catholic congregations: Gilbert, Jewell, and Ames. Road conditions from Gilbert to Ames made Sunday Mass for the Ames Catholics uncertain. Because of this situation the college students petitioned the Archbishop in 1911 to appoint Father Renier resident pastor in Ames. In a letter to the Archbishop in response to the students’ petition Father Renier stated, “it has been my hope that some time in the future the authorities in the diocese would realize that the work done here for our students is not a parochial matter, but something which effects the whole diocese." - Kurt, Rev.

Title A name given to the resource Saint John the Baptist (West Ridge, Iowa) Description An account of the resource "Natives of Ireland were the first Catholic settlers in the West Ridge area of Winneshiek County, about eight miles northwest of Waukon. Norwegian settlers were their neighbors to the south. In 1860 Bishop Clement Smyth bought a lot for a cemetery and another lot for the church. Work on the church began in a year or two, with rock quarried on the William Rea farm nearby. The stone work was done by a man of the parish named Sweeney, while other parishioners quarried and transported the rock. It was completed and named for Saint John the Baptist in 1863, making it about the third oldest church still in use in the Archdiocese." - Kurt, Rev. Msgr.

Title A name given to the resource St. Bernard (Alta Vista, Iowa) Description An account of the resource "Until 1897 the early Catholic settlers of Alta Vista in Chickasaw County attended either the Elma or the North Washington parish church. Rural roads that sometimes became impassible caused them to ask Archbishop John Hennessy for permission to build a church at Alta Vista. Under the supervision of Father Francis J. Gunn, pastor of Elma, work began immediately. The cornerstone was laid in the spring of 1897, with the building completed by autumn. In recognition of Bernard Meirick’s leadership the church and parish were named for Saint Bernard." - Kurt, Rev. Msgr. Edgar, Parish Profile #167, The Witness, March 25, 1990.
