Wide shot of Church Including Marker | Additional Description:
The church's origins, per the St. Gall Website: In 1917, about thirty families began working towards building a church of their own. Land was donated for the site and after raising $7,000, parishioners started construction, donating most of the labor involved. On June 22, 1919, with Bishop Thomas Grace presiding, our church was dedicated to St. Gall.
