Saint Aloysius Catholic Church.  Yoder, In USA

Saint Aloysius Catholic Church was founded in 1858 and has been serving Allen and Wells Counties ever since. We are located on Bluffton Road, just south of the 469 Overpass. The parish consists of a beautiful church with a close-knit community of faith and a school staffed with excellent teachers and administrators committed to each and every one of its students.

In 1867 a small frame building schoolhouse was built and was used for two to three months per year. On October 9, 1876, the school was opened and in 1882, a two-story brick building was built. Pupils were first taught by the Sisters of St. Agnes and then by the Sisters of St. Joseph.
