Sunday, October 13, 1889

Contractor J. Louden, who will build the new German Evangelical church, corner of Armstrong avenue and Owings street, states that he will have the edifice ready for occupation by the latter part of November.


In 1892, George Hauser replaced Yeack. Gideon Bartlett was in charge of Sunday programs, which were taught in German.   In 1894, the church became the German Lutheran Church for the next fourteen years. The building was closed in 1905.
