–Michael D. Henson, Pastor of Trinity Lutheran Church (Herrin, IL).
Picture: Trinity Lutheran Church in Altenburg, MO. Our congregation participated in a Christmas Country Church Tour on December 14, 2023. “The cornerstone for this church was laid in 1866. Stone was hauled by horse-drawn wagon from Bodenshatz Branch creek, three miles (4.8 km) east of the church site. The third church was dedicated in 1867. The design of the church with the pulpit situated above the altar is typical 18th century German style church architecture. … The name of the church was officially changed from the Evangelical Lutheran Brethren, U.A.C., to Trinity Lutheran Brethren, U.A.C., in 1918.” (Trinity_Lutheran_Church_(Altenburg,_Missouri)
