Heilige Franciscus van Assisië

Steenwijksmoer's church was built in 1932, thanks to the efforts of pastor Slosser who had saved a considerable sum of money in a limited number of years by begging sermons in various churches, and tens of thousands of begging letters. An amount of ƒ 79,820,— was spent on the construction of the church and rectory. A cemetery and a Catholic school were also laid out in the village. The church building is a characteristic example of a Christocentric church space with a wide nave. In 1939, the murals on the triumphal arch, behind the altar (Last Supper) and around the main portal were painted by Jacob Ydema (1901-1990).
