BACKGROUND NOTE
In November 1925 a constitution was adopted for the Grace Evangelical Lutheran Church and the first pastor was installed the following January. In 1928 the congregation was received into the Lutheran Church Missouri-Synod. A new building replaced the original church in 1942. Through the 1960’s the church’s ministry to Wayne State College grew, and in 1973 an assistant pastor joined the congregation to serve also as the Missouri Synod campus pastor at the college.
