Precious Blood Catholic Church (Chickasaw, Ohio)
Precious Blood Catholic Church is a Roman Catholic parish in Chickasaw, Ohio, United States. Erected in 1903 and still an active parish, the church historically owned two buildings constructed in its early years that have been designated as historic sites.
==Early parish history==
Chickasaw's first Catholics attended Mass at St. Sebastian's Church,〔Scranton, S.S. ''History of Mercer County, Ohio and Representative Citizens''. Chicago: Biographical, 1907, 239.〕 nearly to the northwest.〔DeLorme. ''Ohio Atlas & Gazetteer''. 7th ed. Yarmouth: DeLorme, 2004, 54. ISBN 0-89933-281-1.〕 In 1897, the Chickasaw members erected a small church in their village for use as a chapel of ease during the week.〔 Because the villagers typically did not own horses, they found it difficult to reach St. Sebastian's, and sympathy grew for attempting to form their own parish; accordingly, in January 1903, the parishioners from Chickasaw left the church and took their possessions with them. Little more than one week later, St. Sebastian's was destroyed by a fire (now seen as highly suspicious〔Brown, Mary Ann. ''Ohio Historic Inventory Nomination: St. Sebastian Catholic Church''. Ohio Historical Society, February 1977.〕), and parishioners were faced with the decision of rebuilding the church.〔(Precious Blood Church History ), Marion Catholic Community, 2009. Accessed 2010-05-29.〕 Ultimately, the parish was split into two parts: the remnant members of St. Sebastian's rebuilt their church, while the chapel in Chickasaw became the parish church for the newly formed Church of the Precious Blood.〔 Fifty-eight families composed the parish's charter membership.〔
The parishioners quickly began to expand their facilities. Before the end of 1903, the chapel had been expanded, and the following year saw the construction of a brick rectory at a cost of about $4,000. Membership grew rapidly; by 1907, the congregation had grown from thirty-eight families to seventy.〔 In 1908, the church decided to erect a parish school,〔(Chickasaw School and Rectory ), Ohio Historical Society, 2007. Accessed 2010-05-29.〕 located across the street from its rectory.〔
Precious Blood Church is one of the youngest Catholic parishes in Mercer County; only Our Lady of Guadalupe Church in Montezuma〔 and St. Theresa of the Infant Jesus Church in Rockford are newer;〔 Our Lady parish was only a mission when Precious Blood was established,〔 and St. Theresa parish was created in 1936.〔Fortin, Roger.
