St. Lawrence Community Church
From Bring On The Pioneers - Scott Heidepriem 1978

   The St. Lawrence Community Church was founded in 1926, with 107 charter members, as a merger of two small denominational churches into one community church.
   The church originally met in the old Presbyterian Church, and was later moved to the former Methodist Church building. A new educational unit was added in 1961. The interior of the old church sanctuary has been redecorated, and in 1973 was refurnished with new pews and pulpit furniture.
    Pastors who have served the church from 1926 to 1977 include the Reverends D.E. Cleveland, J.T. O'Neill, Samuel G. Blumhagen, Norval A. Luke, Leon C. Decker, Norman A. Conklin, Donald E. Hoover, Robert L. Wieduwilt, and Richard R. Ransom.
