In September 2011, Precious Blood Sisters dedicated a monument in St. John the Baptist Cemetery in Glandorf, Ohio, honoring the 78 Precious Blood Sisters buried there. These Sisters dedicated their lives in service to the German immigrants in Ohio. The Sisters’ remains were reinterred from their original convent cemeteries in Maria Camp and Glandorf to St. John the Baptist Cemetery in 1947. Photos by Sr. Noreen Jutte unless otherwise noted.
