St. Mark's Lutheran Church 
MOVE and RESTORATION  Project

Picture taken about 1910

A CHURCH for the Museum has been on the “want list” for many years and finally the dream has come true.   Thanks to three members of the St. Mark’s Lutheran Church, Bee Nelson and the late Bill Nelson and Lee Eckhart who so kindly offered the building to us so that this landmark can be preserved.  It was  Bill and Lee’s grandfathers who were charter members and helped build the church 117 years ago.
