History in Tower
When the rich deposit of Iron ore was discovered in Soudan, MN in the late 19th century, a vibrant community sprung up around it. In 1888, a group of English speaking people founded the Episcopal Church, which they named Saint Christopher’s. It later was changed to Saint Mary’s and was known as the “Cousin Jack Church” to indicate that it’s members were mostly Cornish, Welsh, Scottish, English, and Irish. Saint Mary’s historic Church was originally built on the old road between Tower and Soudan. It remained an active Episcopal Church until about 2011 when it was deconsecrated and given to a group of people by the Episcopal Church of MN and a nonprofit was formed. In 2015, the building was moved to the current location and is now the LVCC. by President-Mary Batinich
