| Additional Information: | Our Savior Lutheran Church was established in 1962, with initial services being held at the Veterans Memorial Building. The church officially was organized as a part of the Missouri Synod Lutheran Church in 1963. That year, the congregation voted to purchase the Palmer & Margaret Gardner House on Kane Street to use as a church, using the lower floor as a sanctuary and Sunday school rooms and a parsonage on the second. By 1965, Our Savior outgrew these spaces and started constructed a new church on the same property. The new church was completed the following year at 417 S. Kane Street. The Gardner House was later sold and moved to 344 Picket Court to be used as a private residence to create room for the church to construct an educational wing. |
