History: The Church of the Holy Redeemer was founded in 1872 with the building of a small brick church on South Walnut Street. Priests of the congregation of the Precious Blood served the parish until 1895 when services were discontinued and the people worshiped with the St. Augustine congregation in Minster.
In 1948, Rev. Leo Boeke, a diocesan priest, was appointed to make preparations for the establishment of a permanent parish. Property was purchased at Pearl and Herman Streets while the congregation used a building on North Main St. for worship. This building was later moved to the new location and dedicated in 1948.
Rev. Carl Will oversaw the purchase of the rectory at 21 South Main Street, the purchase of the property on South Eastmoor Drive and the construction of the present church in 1969 and parish center in 1976. Rev. R. Daniel Conlon was pastor from 1996 until August, 2002, at which time he was installed as Bishop of Steubenville.
Numerous improvements have been made to this beautiful modern church in the years since.
