This book was released on 2012-06-11 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of Zion Evangelical Lutheran Church is really the story of Lutherans in America. This incredible story unfolds within the History of Zion Evangelical Lutheran Church, Oldwick, New Jersey Series. Beginning with that first service in the home of a freed slave on August 1, 1714, the American experience for Lutherans is reflected in the people and events that have shaped and molded Zion. Led by the first ordained Lutheran pastor in America, Rev. Justus Falckner, Zion has been writing a 300 year old narrative that continues today. The stories are rich and varied. Rev. Henry Melchior Muhlenberg, the Patriarch of American Lutherans, served as one of Zion's pastors, along with his sons, Peter and Henry. Zion, like other Lutheran churches, would be shaped by the Revolutionary War and the mass immigration of the Palatine Germans to America. During the Civil War, Zion's Rev. Jacob Christian Duy, taking a strong stand for the Union, would allow arms to be kept in the parsonage. World War I would leave a deep impact not only on Zion, but on all Lutherans. For Zion, this impact would be reflected in the town changing its name from New Germantown to Oldwick. These are just of few of the stories. There are many more to be told. The three volumes of the History of Zion Evangelical Lutheran Church, Oldwick, New Jersey Series capture these stories.Historian Norman C. Wittwer, Jr. (1919-1982) wrote the series' second volume, The Faithful and the Bold: The Story of the First Service of the Zion Evangelical Lutheran Church, Oldwick, New Jersey, covering the years 1709-1714. This is the story of the founding of Zion. This text examines the people and events that led to Zion's first service on August 1st, 1714. Mr. Wittwer's book was previously published in 1984 by Monocacy Book Company of Redwood City, California. For this second edition, we have reformatted the text and images, but have not edited the first edition's content.Volume three, Children of Salvation: 275 Years: A Brief History of Zion Evangelical Lutheran Church, Oldwick, New Jersey, written by Henry H. Murray and Karen J. Murray, picks up where Mr. Wittwer's narrative leaves off. Covering the years 1914 through 1989, this is a valuable record of Zion's pastors, people, and events for this period. This text, originally self published in 1990, is a combination of a 1939 booklet "225 Years: A History of Zion Evangelical Lutheran Church, Oldwick, New Jersey," written by Rev. Charles O. Thompson; and the 1990 addition "Zion, The Last Fifty Years (1939-1989)," by Henry H. Murray & Karen J. Murray. We reformatted the text and layout, but have not edited the first edition's content, except where noted.

For Zion, this impact would be reflected in the town changing its name from New Germantown to Oldwick. These are just of few of the stories. There are many more to be told. The three volumes of the History of Zion Evangelical Lutheran Church, Oldwick, New Jersey Series capture these stories.The first volume, History of the Zion Lutheran Church at New Germantown, New Jersey, written by historian Dr. John C. Honeyman (1836-1916), provides a window into the life of Zion's congregation, both the triumphs and the struggles. This compelling narrative, complete with correspondence, diaries, and written records, is a comprehensive look at the pastors, people, and events of Zion Lutheran Church from the years 1715 through 1900. Dr. Honeyman completed this voluminous manuscript in 1903. Although excerpts were serially published in the Proceedings of the New Jersey Historical Society (1924-1931) under the title "Zion, St. Paul and Other Lutheran Churches in Central New Jersey," the manuscript has never before been published in its entirety. Due to its length, we have divided the contents into two parts-part 1 covers the years 1715 through 1774; and part 2, 1775 through 1900. We have presented Dr. Honeyman's manuscript exactly as typed. All handwritten edits are assumed to have been made by Dr. Honeyman.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although best known as the Garden State, New Jersey could also be called the Church State. The state boasts thousands of houses of worship, with more than one thousand still standing that were built in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Frank L. Greenagel has photographed more than six hundred. He has selected two hundred of these historic landmarks for an examination of why they are sited where they are and why they look the way they do. Greenagel has sought out and included images of not only mainstream Christian churches, but also Jewish synagogues as well as the places of worship of religious groups such as the Moravians, the Church of the Brethren, and the Seventh Day Baptists. The photographs are arranged chronologically within sections on three major early settlement regions of the state ¾ the Hudson River, the Delaware River, and the Raritan Valley. For each building, Greenagel details the date of construction, the cultural, historic, and religious influences that shaped it, the architectural details that distinguish it, and what purpose it currently serves.
