Church History

History of Our Church

Faith Lutheran Church came into being in 1997, when our current building was built and we moved from our location in downtown Miltona.  We have a rich history of being connected with Spruce Hill Lutheran Church, which is now operated by the Douglas County Historical Society.

 

 

History of the ELCA

The Evangelical Lutheran Church in America was formed over 20 years ago. This new church was formed from three separate and well-established North American church bodies:

  • The American Lutheran Church
  • The Association of Evangelical Lutheran Churches, and
  • The Lutheran Church in America.

Beginning January 1, 1988, these churches, with shared beliefs and missions, officially formed the ELCA. Two decades later, this energized church is composed of 4.8 million members and nearly 10,500 congregations across the U.S. and Caribbean. Today, the ELCA reflects the rich and diverse heritage of the people it serves.
