Description
This March 6, 1929 photograph shows the newly completed First Evangelical Church at 1506 10th St. Built in less than six months, the brick church cost its congregation $25,000. The First Evangelical Church – comprised mostly of Swiss worshippers, with services conducted in German – was born in Sacramento in the late 1870s in the home of Andrew Kaeser. From 1882 onward, the congregation had been worshipping inside a wood-frame structure. The new structure was built on the same property, which had been purchased in 1881. In 1946, the church changed its name to the First Evangelical United Brethren Church.
