The Modum Lutheran Church of Lake Sarah Township was organized in 1876 at the home of Peter S. Peterson. In June 1881, John Furan donated land for the burial of his daughter in law's brother, Lars Knudtson, and cousin, Joe Frisvold, who had drowned in Lake Shetek. This would become the Modum Cemetery.
The first church was built in 1903. It was struck by lightning and burned down in 1906. Another church was built the following year. Church services were in Norwegian until 1921, when they switched to English. In 1951, Modum Lutheran and Bethany Lutheran Churches merged to form Lake Sarah Lutheran Church in Garvin, Minnesota .
The name of the church "Modum" could have been name for Modum, Norway.
