                <text>"Foreseeing the need for a much larger church, Father Kortenkamp worked with his assistant, Father Joseph Brinkmann, to plan and construct the present Gothic style church with twin spires towering over 200 feet, until recent years the largest church in the state. Three months after Father Kortenkamp’s death, the church was dedicated in 1889. In 1950 a north entrance was added and the church was consecrated in 1955. When Cardinal Konrad von Preysing of Berlin visited Dyersville to bless a school site in 1947, he was so impressed with the huge, stately Gothic church and the almost total Catholic population, that he said, “How wonderfully appropriate it would be, if this lovely church could be raised to a basilica.” Pope Pius XII granted the request in 1956. The Basilica of Saint Francis Xavier is one of 32 basilicas in the United States."&#13;

                <text>"Father John M. Molloy was appointed pastor of the Belmont and Ryan parishes in January 1909. Later that year he moved the Belmont rectory to the town of Ryan. Since the Belmont church was a truly rural church, it was easy for Father Molloy to close the parish. Then Belmont parishioners gravitated to either Ryan or Coggon. Meanwhile Father Molloy formed the Coggon area Catholics into a parish of their own and guided them in the building of a parish church. Archbishop James J. Keane formally established the parish in 1912. Dedication of the church to Saint John may have been in deference to Father John Molloy."&#13;

                <text>"Only four Catholic families were living in the town of Earlville in eastern Delaware County, when Saint Joseph Church was built in 1886. The project was sponsored mainly by townspeople who were not Catholic. They thought another church in the community would bring more Catholics and business. Priests of the Dyersville parish began to care for Saint Joseph’s in 1911, and soon the Earlville mission was placed in charge of Father Henry Dunkel."&#13;

                <text>"A Catholic church of their own was only a dream for the Edgewood Catholics until 1916. Some were members of the Greeley parish to the south; others were members of the Littleport parish to the northeast. But all attended Mass in Cox Creek, Garber, Greeley, Littleport, and Strawberry Point according to the Sundays of the month each church had Mass. In 1916 the Edgewood Catholics organized to build a church and establish a parish with a resident pastor. Archbishop James J. Keane told them he thought it a great undertaking for only 28 families. But he assured them of a resident pastor if they could raise two-thirds of the building costs."&#13;

Although a church was built in Nevada in 1870, it was 1881 when the church was built in Colo. They were under Father Patrick Smith’s direction at the time. In 1882 newly ordained Father Matthew S.

                <text>&lt;p&gt;“The first church in Dorchester parish in Allamakee County was completed in 1855 under the direction of Father William Jacoby of Lansing. Irish pioneers were the first to settle in the Dorchester area. In 1854 the Theodore Scwhartzhoff family were the first Germans to settle in the area. He was a frequent prayer leader on priestless Sundays. Father Mathias Hannon may have been the first to celebrate Mass in the Dorchester parish, in 1858, as he made his rounds among the Catholic settlers in northeast Iowa. “&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

                <text>&lt;p&gt;“Eight men organized Eagle Township in Black Hawk County in 1858. At least three of them are buried in the Eagle Center parish cemetery. A majority of the first settlers were Catholic. The first church was built on five acres of high ground, but never fully completed because of the economy. Train prices were depressed. After destruction in a windstorm in 1874, the church was replaced by a frame building that served the parish for over a century. The present church was completed in 1976, the property is a total of ten acres.”&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

                <text>&lt;p&gt;“Bishop Mathias Loras purchased a site in 1854 for the first church in Colesburg in northeastern Delaware County. Before that time, visiting priests celebrated Mass in various homes for the Irish settlers, who came into the area as early as the 1840s, and that explains the choice of Saint Patrick for their patron. They built their first church about 1862 under Father Michael Lynch’s direction and it served until a replacement was built in 1877. Land for the cemetery was donated by John McMahon, probably in 1857 as the oldest tombstone bears that date.”&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
