General note
Grace Lutheran was organized May 3, 1911 by a student pastor, O. T. Floodberg. The Methodists built a church in Barber in 1917, and this building was used by both Methodists and Lutherans until 1927 when the Lutherans bought the building and the Methodists moved to Ryegate. Beginning in 1934 Grace Lutheran was served by the same pastor who served American Lutheran in Harlowtown. In 1949 the congregation petitioned for release from the Lutheran Augustana Synod, under which they had been operating at the time, in order to join the Evangelical Lutheran Church to which Harlowtown belonged. The request was granted. On February 1, 1982 the church was listed in the National register of Historic places.
