Last Sunday, the foundation of the cornerstone for the new Lutheran Jerusalem Church, Burlin Street and Willow Street, tooke place under the guidance of Rev. Albin Matthes. The congregation has now over 200 voting members, who are mostly Germans or German-Americans. The congregation was founded on the 12th of March, 1893 and so far has its church services in a building at 448 Larrabee Street.

The Foundation-Ceremony was simple, but impressive and was carried out by Rev. Matthes.
