Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Trinity Lutheran Church, Reading, Pa Fortunately before the late Rev. Dr. Mann became disabled by illness, it was suggested to the Vestry that they employ him to secure for us copies of all correspondence, items and facts he had discovered, in preparing his Notes to the Halle reports, which re ferred to this congregation and its pastors. Dr. Mann undertook the task, and three years ago put into the writer's hands the results of his work. Both were surprised at the amount of material he found, especially among the letters of Henry Melchior Muhlenberg. These letters will give to this history an interest and value beyond our own congregation, and add new lustre to the character and wisdom of that eminent man.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Trinity Lutheran Church, Reading, Pa On Trinity Sunday of this year, 1894, Trinity Lutheran congregation of Reading, Pa., celebrates the one hundredth anniversary of the completion and consecration of its venerable church edifice. Much already has been done in preparation for that celebration. The magnificent Memorial Chapel, erected in 1891-92 by William A. Arnold and Samuel H. Kutz, is a memorial not only of their parents but also of this event. This was followed by a complete renovation of the church itself by the congregation, including the rebuilding of the steeple, new memorial windows, altar, lectern and other articles of church furniture, a new gallery front, and general improvements. For some time I have thought the best memorial, and possibly the most useful and enduring of all, would be the writing and publication of a history of the congregation. The present building is a century old, but the congregation's history goes back to 1751. It is, therefore, one of the oldest, as well as one of the largest and most important of the Lutheran congregations in America. With the exception of several newspaper articles, written by the late H. H. Muhlenberg, M. D., and published in the Missionary in 1857-58, its history has never been written. When I began the search four months ago for material for this history, I expected to find a very limited supply, but as the search proceeded, I was surprised and delighted to find how abundant it was.

Excerpt: ...Church at Reading, of which he was for many years a member.'' The following gentlemen were appointed the committee: Messrs. Welsh, Magraw, Frazer, Dohnert and Espy, but, like many.other resolutions passed in conventions, it was never done. A monument, suitably inscribed, covers his grave in the Charles Evans Cemetery, he being the first of Trinity's pastors who died and was buried at Reading. CHAPTER XII. 1829-1841. 1Re. Jacob /nMller, 3D. 3D. When it became known, in 1828, that Dr. Muhlenberg had tendered his resignation as pastor of Trinity Church, many names were suggested for the place he so long occupied. Among these were some of the most prominent ministers of the Lutheran Church in this country, residing in New York and Maryland, as well as in Pennsylvania. But the man upon whom most eyes were fixed was Rev. Jacob Miller, pastor of the churches in and around Falkner Swamp, in Montgomery county, and president of the Ministerium. When the position was first offered to him, he declined it, preferring to remain in the field he had so long served, and which included the Goshenhoppen congregation, in which he had been reared. Extended correspondence between him and Rev. Dr. Muhlenberg followed, in which Reading was aided by Mr. Miller's wife, who was desirous he should move to Reading, and he finally consented to come, provided Dr. Muhlenberg would continue as pastor until the following May, as he was unwilling to make the change before that date. Dr. Muhlenberg consented to this, and a formal call was written, dated January 15,1829, and sent to him. As its language is almost identical with that given to Mr. Muhlenberg in 1803, we need not give it in full. It was a sign of the times that in neither 156 REV. JACOB MILLER. of these calls...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Memorial of the One Hundred and Seventy-Fifth Anniversary of Trinity Lutheran Church, Lancaster, Pennsylvania This sketch of "Old Trinity" has been hurriedly gathered, yet with scrupulous care, from every possible source - pamphlet, book and protocol. It is but a running chronicle; deals not with the flowers of the art, but with plain facts. Its preparation has been crowded with increasing interest; and if the reader gets half the enjoyment in scanning its pages as the author did in compiling them, the wage of the work has been met to the uttermost farthing.

This book was released on 2018-02-10 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Lutheran Church in American History The position of the Lutheran Church in America rests upon a birthright. It is not an immigrant church that needed to be naturalized after it was transplanted from some European land. It is as old as the Ameri can nation and much older than the American Republic. The Lutheran Church in America is an integral and potent part of American Christianity. The people in the Lutheran churches of the land are a constituent and typical element of the American nation. This fact, if properly understood and adequately weighed, will im press every Lutheran with a sense of his responsibility to his day and to his community. It should impress the Lutheran Church as a whole with a sense of its obligation to American civilization in general. Now this reciprocal relationship between American culture and the American Lutheran Church can be properly understood only in the light of the historical perspective. That the Lutheran churches are an inte gral and molding element in American Christianity and that Lutherans are a constituent and determining part of the American nation can be appreciated only when it is observed that our Church and our nation were born at the same time, grew up side by side, and developed by similar stages of progress.

This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 650 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Confessional History of the Lutheran Church The sad service, and yet a privilege, was assigned me by the author of this volume to preface his work by a few words expressive of the conditions of its issue. Professor Richard, after a brief yet severe illness lasting but five days, passed away, March 7th, from earthly labor in the full vigor of mental and physical life. Only one-half of the proof matter of the volume received his personal examination and correction before his death. This volume is the finis as well as the ripe fruit of his studies for twenty years in this department of scholarly research. It was the intention of the author to append to his volume a bibliography of the literature pertaining to this subject, and consulted by him in its preparation; but his sudden removal by death precluded the execution of the purpose. Fully two hundred volumes, chiefly Latin and German, were consulted, all of which are in the libraries of the Theological Seminary and of Pennsylvania College, save about twenty volumes, some not purchasable and borrowed, and several examined in the library of the University of Leipzig. It would doubtless have been a great pleasure to the author to read the reviews and criticisms of his work, and to elucidate and substantiate the claims resulting from his researchful labors. But he has now left the truth to vindicate itself on the pages of history. He labored to reach objective facts, and to relate them according to his consciousness of historic verity, a consciousness illumined by wide researches. The loss to the Theological Seminary of his living personality can only in part be compensated by a wide circle of readers who may be interested in this historic subject, and desire to be profited by his fruitful investigations and his gift of creedal discipline. Recognition is due Professors J. 0. Evjen and K. J. Grimm for their kind service of final proof reading and critical suggestions.
