175th Anniversary
Faith Lutheran Church began with three original congregations organized in 1850 by Norwegian immigrants who settled in this area of Manitowoc County mainly between 1847 and 1850. On October 4, 1850, these immigrants met to adopt a basic constitution to form the Norwegian Congregation of Manitowoc and Vicinity, which included 3 districts, Manitowoc, Gjerpen, and Valders. In 2025, we are celebrating the 175th anniversary of the formation of these congregations which eventually became Faith Lutheran in Valders and First Lutheran in Manitowoc. For more information on the history of Faith Lutheran, click here.
May 18th at 3:00 pm: Members of Faith Lutheran were invited to the first 175th Anniversary celebration at First Lutheran Church in Manitowoc. They held an organ recital and hymn sing, followed by a reception.
June 15th (Father's Day) We are holding our first event during 9AM worship here at Faith. The son of Conrad Thompson, Pastor Mervin Thompson, will be our guest preacher that day. Conrad Thompson was particularly notable as a son of Faith Lutheran Church who went on to significant work in the national and international church and was the director of the radio show, “Lutheran Vespers”.
On October 12th there will be a combined celebration event at the Franciscan Center on Hwy 151 at Silver Lake.
Commemorative Cookbook Also, in honor of our 175th anniversary, we are compiling a commemorative cookbook. We would like to include historic old-time recipes, along with all kinds of favorite recipes from our congregation or community. Please send your recipes to Pastor Dan Lyman at pastordanlyman@gmail.com.
