1875

There was a split in the German Lutheran congregation in 1875 between those who wanted a strictly German-speaking church and those who wished to worship in German and English.  Those who wanted the latter split from the congregation and formed St. Mark's Lutheran Church, first organized on April 26, 1875.

Lutheran minister from Washington Rev. Simeon W. Harkey published "Justification by Faith as Held and Taught by Lutherans."
