St. Peter's Catholic Church
St. Peter's Catholic Church, Catholic church in Jefferson, United States
St. Peter's Catholic Church stands at 400 Main Street in Jefferson, featuring Romanesque architecture with detailed stonework and traditional religious elements throughout the structure.
The church building, constructed in 1891, gained recognition through its addition to the National Register of Historic Places in 1989 for its architectural and historical value.
French Canadian settlers established the foundation of the church community, which grew from 25 families in 1867 to a strong congregation supporting education and religious activities.
The church maintains regular mass schedules and operates alongside a parochial school building from 1951, serving the religious education needs of the Jefferson community.
In 1876, Father Boucher led an eleven-mile pilgrimage with parishioners seeking protection from a grasshopper plague that threatened local agriculture.
