This joint website for St. Boniface Catholic Church and St. Mary of the Divine Maternity Church is named after Father Francis Tecklenberg.  This remarkable and pioneering priest was known simply and affectionately as Fr. Teck.   Fr. Teck was the longtime pastor of St. Boniface who also organized a small band of Catholics near Ellis Grove.  As providence would have it, both parishes began sharing a priest in July 2011.  As we begin our journey together we remember the many men and women who dedicated their time, talent, and treasure to keep the Catholic faith alive in Randolph County.  May Fr. Teck and Fr. Joe Sense give us wisdom to guide our deliberations as we honor their legacy.
