This is the first German Lutheran Church, formerly with the Iowa Synod, which merged with the Joint Synod of Ohio and Buffalo forming the American Lutheran Church. It is the daughter of St. Petri Lutheran Church, located at 18th Avenue and Dupont Avenue No. Established in 1890, the congregation built a small frame structure 1891 at 724 Lowry Ave. NE. The congregation erected a brick Gothic Revival-style church on the site in 1922 that had a seating capacity of 450.
In 2013, the building was occupied by the House of Refuge, Church of God in Christ.
