View of St. John's Lutheran Church located on the corner of N. 18th Street and Beverly Blvd in the city of Montebello. Photo shows a tan church surrounded by several trees; a large but simple cross hangs from the south wall and a modernistic bell tower is on the left. St. John's Lutheran Church was established in 1906; the first church was built at a cost of $500 and dedicated on Feb. 18, 1912, although it is unclear if it was built at its present location (pictured here). The religion of Lutheranism is a major branch of Protestant Christianity that identifies with the teachings of Martin Luther, a German monk and theologian who sought to reform the practices of the Roman Catholic Church in the 16th century. Today, nearly 70 million Christians belong to Lutheran churches worldwide. Photo dated: November 2006.
