General note
N. F. S. Grundtvig, a Danish pastor, poet, educator, and reformer, gave a new direction to Danish Lutheranism with emphasis on creation, baptism, communion, the apostolic creed, piety, and the folk-traditions of his homeland. Grundtvigian theology came to America with Danish immigrants. It was also brought to Montana by a Danish colony in Dagmar. Here Nathanael Lutheran Church was organized in1911. District 4 of the larger church came to be known as Volmer Lutheran Church, and in 1917 Volmer built its own church, 24x40 feet, with a 12x12 square foot steeple.
