St. Joseph Catholic Church & Grotto- Apple Creek
Celebrating 190 years in 2019, St. Joseph Catholic Church is one of the original Christmas Country Churches on our holiday tour. Rosary & Divine Mercy Chaplet are held on the First Tuesday of every month at 7:00pm. The natural outdoor grotto makes for the perfect place for an afternoon stroll or for a family picnic.
Located inside the St. Joseph Catholic Church is the Catholic Heritage Center & Museum, which is home local artifacts donated to the museum from local businesses and families who settled this area in the early 1800’s.
