In 1887, St. Anthony of Padua began as a Station of St. Rose Catholic Church in Lima. In 1909, the parish petitioned the diocese to establish a permanent parish in Columbus Grove. The petition was finally acted upon in 1911.
In 1912, the parish received their first resident pastor, Father John Theis. In 1913, the parish built a combination church, school and convent. In 1938, the church began building a new church. They began with a church in the basement. The rest of the church was not completed until 1953.
