The German Evangelical Church was organized in 1884, under the guidance of the Reverend Frederick Lussky. First meetings were held in a Lyndon school house. A small church (20 by 30 feet) was built on land donated by Frank Hayen, on the southwest quarter of section 6. In October of 1906, a larger church was built on the same site. in 1913, that church was taken down and later rebuilt in Morrison, later being named St. Peters Lutheran Church.
