St. Louis Church's Artwork

Fr. Tim Schehr explains the symbols of the St. Louis Church dome and the meanings of the paintings. The artwork was created by Gerhard Lamers. Lamers painted the Annunciation in which Mary is on the left of the church, the angel Gabriel is on the right, and God is above at the top. In the dome he painted the seven gifts of the Holy Spirit, with additional symbols below. Fr. Tim Schehr explains each of these symbols in the video.

This video was created by Ben B. as his Eagle project.  Ben is a scout with Troop 741.

Church History

The year 2026 will mark the 170th Anniversary of St. Louis Parish – Owensville in what was then called New Boston.

While the first church was built in 1857 and not dedicated until 1858, the first Baptism was recorded in December 1856.  Since then, the church continues to cultivate a strong community bond with generations of families as parishioners. St. Louis parish has a rich and long history. Today, the parish numbers 500 families and  is growing. It has numerous spiritual, educational, and social activities.

On July 1, 2012, the four parish region of Holy Trinity, St. Ann, St. Louis, and St. Philomena were gathered together under the name of Clermont Catholic Communities. The overseer of this process and the pastor of this new four-parish region was Father Jerry Hiland, who up until that time had been pastor of St. Louis and St. Philomena.  Father Martin Bachman was assigned to the parish region in 2015, and in 2022, Father Thomas McCarthy was named pastor of this parish region, now known as Beacons of Light SE-5 or Holy Family Parishes.  The four parishes share one parish office and staff, located in the office next to St. Louis Church.
