In 1879 Precious Blood Catholic Church was established as a mission of the Catholic parish in Spalding, a town just up the road from Stephenson. Precious Blood was designated as its own parish in 1883. The parish is under the jurisdiction of the Diocese of Marquette with Bishop John Doerfler serving as our bishop. It is the mission of Precious Blood Parish to facilitate an encounter with Jesus and provide pastoral care to all those living within the parish's territory. We welcome visitors and truly hope you feel at home in our church.
