You will weep and mourn – how profoundly those words resonate this day as we mourn the tragic loss of Trent Pleiman who died yesterday in the car accident and as we begin to sift through the embers of St. John’s Church that have now burned out, but not the embers of faith that have marked St. John’s since the first Mass in 1836 and the current church which was dedicated in 1891.
On May 29, 2025, there was a devastating fire at our beloved and historic St. John the Baptist church in Maria Stein, OH. This page is where pertinent updates about the recovery efforts will be shared. We ask that you would support us with your prayers!
