In 1942 when Mr. Edward Kelter was a patient in Mayo Brothers hospital in Rochester, Minn., he saw a vision of the Blessed Virgin in his hospital room and immediately decided after returning home he would perform some work of charity in thanksgiving. Continued poor health made it impossible to carry out his pl&ns. So it was that in July of 1945 Mrs. Kelter decided to erect a church in honor of her departed husband. Through the Extension magazine the need for a place of worship in Winfield, La., seemed most appealing. The city with a population of 5,000 persons had no Catholic church, the old one having been burned down. Bricks were obtained and most of the work was done by faithful parishioners. The structure with a seating capacity of 200 was completed earlier this year. Our Lady of Lourdes, named by its benefactor, was at last a reality. At Mrs. Kelter's request the dedication Mass on Oct. 6 was sung in honor of those people who had faithfully helped in the erection of the church.
