History
In 1854, fourteen families of German settlers built a small log church, just down the hill from the current church. By 1866 they had outgrown their simple log church, and each family contributed to build the church still standing today.
Cemetery
The historic cemetery is lovingly maintained by the First Lutheran Board of Trustees. Many of us have several generations of family members buried here. Burial plots are available for sale to the public, and are sold in sequential order.
