St. Joseph Church at Bear Creek, near Wanblee was the first camp church begun outside of Holy Rosary Mission and Pine Ridge Agency. Built by Fr. Digman, SJ in 1898, St. Joseph was the largest church in its area. William Randall was one of its catechists. When St. Joseph was torn down in 1960, St. Ignatius became the parish for the Wanblee area. Built in 1912 by Jesuit Fr. Henry Grotegeers, SJ, St. Ignatius church received its large addition in 1957. Early Catechists were Louis P. Mousseau and Edward White Crow.
