Church of Our Saviour (Mechanicsburg, Ohio)

The Church of Our Saviour is a historic Episcopal parish in the village of Mechanicsburg, Ohio, United States. Founded in the 1890s, it is one of the youngest congregations in the village, but its Gothic Revival-style church building that was constructed soon after the parish's creation has been named a historic site.
==Organic history==
The first settlers in Goshen Township arrived circa 1805,〔''The History of Champaign County, Ohio''. Chicago: Beers, 1881.〕 and Mechanicsburg was platted on 6 August 1814.〔 Organized religion was rare in the earliest years; the first churches were established by circuit-riding preachers from the Methodist Episcopal Church, who founded small religious classes that met in settlers' log cabins.〔 Mechanicsburg's first church was a Methodist congregation organized in 1814,〔 and by the 1880s the village boasted four additional churches: Baptist, black Baptist, African Methodist Episcopal, and Methodist Protestant.〔
Champaign County's first Protestant Episcopal church was the Church of the Epiphany on the eastern side of the county seat of Urbana; it was created in 1847,〔Middleton, Evan P., ed. ''History of Champaign County Ohio: Its People, Industries and Institutions.'' Vol. 1. Indianapolis: Bowen, 1917.〕 nearly fifty years before a parish was formed in Mechanicsburg. Under the leadership of a five-man executive committee, the Church of Our Saviour was organized in 1892; the parish saw its first church building completed in the following year,〔 although 1894 arrived before the building was dedicated.〔Ware, Joseph. ''History of Mechanicsburg, Ohio''. Columbus: Heer, 1917.〕 The first priest was F.V. Baer, and by the end of the 1890s, the members had bought an additional lot and were preparing to build a new rectory upon it.〔''(Journal of the Twenty-fifth Annual Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the Diocese of Southern Ohio, Held in All Saint's Church, Portsmouth, May 17-18, 1899 )''. Cincinnati: Carpenter, 1899, 79.〕 Although the early members remained loyal to their church, it was frequently weakened by deaths and movement away from the community in its early years. Nevertheless, the parish remained active, and its presence was welcomed by Mechanicsburg's other churches;〔 within its first quarter-century of existence, the members formed an active Sunday school and founded multiple organizations for the female members.〔
