Midwest Monday - Jour de Fete

This weekend, the historic town of Ste. Genevieve will celebrate Jour de Fête, an annual arts and crafts festival that has become one of the Midwest's premier community events. Set among the streets of Missouri's oldest European settlement, the festival brings together more than 200 artists and craftspeople, along with thousands of visitors who come to enjoy local food, music, shopping, and small-town hospitality.

For more than 275 years, Ste. Genevieve has welcomed travelers, neighbors, and families. Events like Jour de Fête remind us what makes Midwest communities so special and our rich history, culture, and community.

Feel Good Friday - Historic South Saint Louis Church Thriving

Saint Francis de Sales Oratory has launched a $15 million dollar renovation project on their church in a historic area of South Saint Louis. In the past 5 years the church has nearly tripled the number of registered families, with an average parishioner age of 29. It is really refreshing to see a historic church building like this being preserved, and a community growing around it. Well done Saint Louis!! 👏 ⚜️

Throwback Thursday: The Old Cathedral

It witnessed the Louisiana Purchase transfer ceremony, the return of the Lewis and Clark Expedition, the Civil War, the great steamboat era on the Mississippi, the Industrial Revolution, two World Wars, the Great Depression, and St. Louis' rise to become one of America's largest cities. Three of William Clark's children were baptized here, and Jean Baptiste Charbonneau—the son of Sacagawea and Toussaint Charbonneau—was baptized at an earlier church on this very site. And most recently, it is where the founder of Go Raise Dough was married.

Through prosperity and hardship alike, the cathedral has remained a silent witness to more than two and a half centuries of Missouri history and faith. It survived the demolition of the hundreds of historic buildings that once surrounded it, enduring as one of the last physical links to the city's founding. Today, standing beneath the shadow of the Gateway Arch, the Old Cathedral is more than a remarkable historic landmark—it is a living reminder that from the very beginning, faith was at the heart of St. Louis. Though the city has weathered countless changes, its Christian roots, like the cathedral itself, continue to stand firm.
