Centennial Celebration

Centennial events at Jehovah Lutheran Church were spread across the 2023-2024 year.

Jehovah Lutheran Church recently celebrated its centennial anniversary! In honor of this special occasion we hosted various events.

There were five special services throughout the year, beginning Reformation Sunday, 29 October 2023 and ending on Reformation Sunday, 27 October 2024. Each of these Sundays highlighted events in a 20 year period: 1920s-1930s, 1940s-1950s, and so on. The special dates are listed below. Jehovah Lutheran Church was established in 1923 and joined the Missouri Synod (LCMS) in 1924, which makes five special Sundays spread throughout the year very appropriate. 

The special dates were: 

1) Reformation Sunday on 29 October 2023: This was the “kick-off” Sunday. This Sunday focused on the history of the church in the 1920s and 30s.
