Kucera was appointed pastor of Prairieburg in 1927, he soon recognized Central City, eight miles west, as a potential parish. Central City’s location on busy highway 13 marked it for growth. In 1932 he secured the vacant Christian Church for $500 through Dr. J. W. Eckstein. There were two Catholic families in the town and only a few in the surrounding area. The church was dedicated on June 8, 1932. It was named for Saint Stephen in deference to Father Kucera. He and his housekeeper had provided over half the funds. Many of the furnishings were provided by neighboring parishes and pastors and his brother, Bishop Louis B. Kucera of Lincoln, Nebraska." - Kurt, Rev. Msgr.

This transaction in 1853 makes it the 14th parish in the history of the present territory of the Archdiocese of Dubuque. The church is about twelve miles south of Dubuque and lies in Jackson County on the border of Dubuque County. Father Terence Donaghue of Dubuque was the founder. The first church, built of stone, was small, about the size of a one room schoolhouse. When it became too small for the congregation, and a larger frame church was built, the stone church became a schoolhouse for a time. The present brick church was built in 1903, and the frame church was sold for salvaged lumber." -Rev. Msgr. Edgar Kurt, Parish Profile #31, The Witness, July 12, 1987.

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.
