Other
- “In the spring of 1892, St. John's Lutheran Church called a young candidate to be its pastor, H.C. Jaus, a graduate of Springfield Seminary. He began his work in the fall of that year. He was the man who, under God's gracious guidance, kept things going and did much especially with the youth, to build up a healthy parish which flourished to the glory of God. Jaus was a Minnesota farmer's son, an ambitious young man who wanted to do more work than St. John's could give him. He began looking around for scattered Lutherans, north and east of the city of Tipton, and succeeded in gathering a number of families whom he invited to a religious service in the City Council Chamber. This was the beginning of Emanuel Lutheran Church.” <ref>Emanuel's church history - Steve Kleist collections</ref>
