Brief History

In 1931 a layman, William Arndt, moved to Jamestown, North Dakota, with his family. Eight souls gathered in his home in August of that year to hear the Gospel preached by Rev. Eugene Hinderer, a Wisconsin Synod pastor serving in Tappen, North Dakota, about forty-five miles to the West. They began renting a church building from the Free Church for five dollars a month. They worshiped in the basement because the sanctuary was unfinished. Also unfinished was the exterior, which was covered in tarpaper and awaiting stucco. For this reason the building was known to area residents as “the black church.” <ref>http://lutheranspokesman.org/2015/08/01/our-saviors-evangelical-lutheran-church-jamestown-north-dakota</ref>
