130 years in the Old South End
Since its beginnings as a mission church for German immigrants in 1886, the St. Lucas Evangelical Lutheran Church has served as a community center in the Old South End. The gorgeous, Gothic-revival church will receive an Ohio Historical Marker at noon on Sunday, June 12. St. Lucas is the first Old South End church to receive this recognition. The ceremony will be held on the front lawn in front of the congregation with a festival Eucharist led by Pastor Martin E. Billmeier at 10:30am. During the dedication, Toledo Mayor, Paula Hicks-Hudson will present a Mayoral Proclamation and Toledo City Councilmen Rob Ludeman and Peter Ujvagi will present a City Council Resolution.
