CONGREGATIONAL
HISTORY: From 1836-1838, a number of people left
Hannover, Germany, and traveled to Cincinnati, Ohio, where many Germans and
members of their own home parishes had already settled. They came with little other than a sense of
freedom from spiritual, military, and economic pressure.
DEPOSITS OF $114.00 and $30 have been made to the church
and Foundation accounts on behalf of Thrivent Financial's Thrivent Choice
program by the directed choice dollars of the following: Larry Claycamp, David Manley.
