⛪ Celebrating 150 Years of Faith, Service, and Community! 🎉
Today, the Van Wert Area Chamber of Commerce was honored to recognize St Mary of the Assumption Van Wert for an incredible 150 years of serving the Van Wert community.
To commemorate this remarkable milestone, the Chamber proudly presented the church with a Member Milestone Recognition Plaque, celebrating a century and a half of faith, fellowship, and community impact.
We were also honored to have Mayor Ken Markward join us as he presented a City Proclamation recognizing St. Mary's enduring legacy and contributions to the City of Van Wert.
Congratulations to the clergy, staff, parishioners, and everyone who has been a part of St. Mary's rich history. Here's to celebrating 150 years of tradition and looking forward to many more years of service to our community!
