St. Anthony of Padua, Angola History
As Catholics in Northeastern Indiana began forming parishes in the late 19th century (Avilla 1853, Auburn 1872, Waterloo 1880 etc.), Steuben County remained the least Catholic county of Indiana. In the 1920s, Bishop Noll mandated St. Michael’s Parish in Waterloo – our mother parish – to start a mission in the “wild lake country around Angola”. Several priests from St. Michael’s – Fr. Charles Scholl, Fr. Otto Peters, Fr. Theodore Fetig – gathered the Catholics and celebrated Mass at irregular intervals at different places in town. The first Mass was celebrated in Angola High School in July of 1924. In 1926, Fr. Scholl bought a big, old house across from Tri-State College (where Masses were then being held) and converted it into a church that held 200 people. In 1929, we were declared a mission parish with the name St. Rita’s. Fr. Fetig even lived in Angola a few months.
