Worship in Fond du Lac

Early in its history, Fond du Lac was visited by itinerant ministers on horseback who preached from tree stumps or in the cabins of settlers. As the population grew, congregations were formed and churches were built.

Worship in Fond du Lac

Today, more than 40 churches (representing most major denominations) serve the spiritual needs of their congregations and promote harmony in the community.

In 2000, six area Catholic churches combined to form Holy Family Congregation — a collaborative parish that is the largest parish in the state.

The cooperative efforts of congregations support the Fondy Food Pantry (which provides food to needy families) and Loaves & Fishes, an organized effort among all churches to serve meals twice weekly to those in need. Church facilities are opened to self-help and support groups and to civic and social groups concerned with the social and cultural needs of the community.
