The membership has grown to reflect changes In the community Immanuel serves. but its mission remains the sameto minister to the needs of the people of its congregation as well as those of the community at large. Great things have happened In the history of Immanuel Lutheran Church in the last 125 years. and great things have taken place In our Nation. Both have survived a bloody Civil War and two World Wars. both have struggled under the economic hardships of the Great Depression. both have witnessed societal changes and have adapted to those changes. and both have never lost the fervor and sense of commitment exhibited by those early immigrants. Mr. Speaker.
