| Beautiful old church |
This church is in a section of Wisconsin called the Holyland because starting in the 1830s Catholic German immigrants came and settled here. There are several small towns, and each centered around its beautiful church. As you can see, it also has its own cemetary.
Unfortunately today due to the devastation of the faith in the Archdiocese of Milwaukee, Mass attendance is so low that this is now a mission church of the combined parishes in Fond du Lac, WI. Thankfully it has been made an historic landmark so that it cannot be gutted as so many churches in Wisconsin have been.

St John the Baptist, pray for us!
