This church built as a German emigrant Non-denominational church, but holds Catholic services in the summer for people who spend their summers at Innsbrook resort. The nearest true Catholic Church is in Wentzville (16 miles) or Warrenton (10 miles).

In 1990 the original church burnt to the ground, even the church bell was just a melted puddle. The church was completely rebuilt, even a new bell.


  "Harmonie Church has a rich history and heritage. The earliest exact record was a baptism on September 3, 1843. Rev. Herman Garlicks, from Femme Osage, would ride his horse the thirteen miles to Harmonie on the upper Charrette river to Shepherd the flock of God and visit the people. Often the history of the church is linked to the ministry of one or more of its pastors. One of those pastors was Karl Strack. His influence was such that the church was commonly called by his name "Strack Church". For 40 years Harmonie flourished as a congregation under his leadership. For reasons unknown, Harmonie was closed from 1932 to 1996 to regular weekly services." ~ Harmonie Church
