'God With Us' God With Us Yesterday Immanuel Lutheran Church came into being on Gruendonnerstag (Maundy Thursday), April 13, 1882 when Rev. John Burkhard conducted the first Lutheran Holy Communion Service in the old German schoolhouse on the southwest corner of North State and Taylor Streets. After 18 years of services, the first shovel of dirt was turned on April 26, 1909 to begin building the present sanctuary. The landmark church spire is of Gothic design. In 1954 the parish education wing was added.
God With Us Today. We celebrate 115 years as a congregation grounded in Jesus Christ. Growing and reaching out in mission and service to our community we dedicate our elevator addition so that all people may worship our lord.
God With Us Forever Our hope for our future lies in Jesus Christ as he continues to draw people to the Word and Sacraments and sends us to be faithful disciples and witnesses.
Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. Hebrews 13:8
