Description
The Saint John's Lutheran Church, located at 1701 L Street, appears in this 1925 photograph. Founded on December 1, 1867, by Reverend Matthias Goethe, along with many of Sacramento's German immigrants, the church was first called the German Evangelical Lutheran Church and was first located at Ninth, then Twelfth and K. At its first service, the congregation consisted of 36 members. It moved to its pictured location in 1912 and changed its name to the St. John's Lutheran Church in 1919.
