•Repairs are in progress for the preservation of this historic building. Interested parties in wanting to help funding please contact the pastor or Mr. Jim Miller, Building Representative through the church number.
The history behind the building of this church began with the donaton of land and foundation stones by Thomas Shriver, the Mayor of 1848 and the structure commensed with a congregation of 35 members under the charter as German Evangelical Luthern Church. The designer of the building was Harry Schmenner, a then member of the congregation. The building was completed and dedicated in March of 1850. For more history click on the "History" sites.
The Christian Church, Disciples of Christ congregation purchased the building from St. Luke's Luthern Church in 1942 to carry on the work of the Lord in this structure with a history. The small present congregation strives to keep this church a "church" in worship to God.
All contributions are greatly appreciated.
