Book Description
Excerpt from Historical Sketch of St. John's Evangelical Lutheran Church, Concord, N. C: Delivered at the Home Coming Service, August 29th, and 30th, 1925 We are met this evening to review and recall a history long -n the making. The subject names and limits the paper. Nothing less than a volume, and historian, can do credit to the long and noble record of St. J obu's Church, of Cabarrus County. The re cords show this congregation to have been in exist ence for about 175 years. There's much that would be of interest in her early life, that passed With her organizers, unknown and never to be known. The first thing that concerns us, is her birth place and people. The exact date of organization is unknown. The arrival of German Emigrants from Penn. In 1745 or there about, tells us who the people were. That a people came from Penn. Into the Pied mont section about this time is a matter long ago settled. Why this people came to America is known. They came for religious freedom. It may be begging the question some - what, to conclude thus, but it looks reasonable for them to have organized for worship in this wilderness of freedom. Those who came into this and other sections are known to have settled along creeks and water cour ses. While living near these water courses, their churches are to be found close by them. The first church erected was about 1 1-2 miles North East of Mt. Pleasant. It was a rude and crude building, made of unhewed pine logs, without windows, floor and chimney. It was called Dutch Buffalo Creek Church. The name no doubt was suggested by the creek which bears the same name, and along whose banks many of her members lived.

Book Description
This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1882* edition. Excerpt: ... such a man, long admired and honored by his people and his synod, when opposition and desertion came, it came to crush. We sit in no judgment upon the acts and motives of that day as to pastor or people. Let oblivion fall on whatever separated friend from friend and the mantle of charity lie over his name, as the winding sheet has long lain over his manly form, and let him be kindly remembered for the long years of service he rendered the church, and your forefather's souls. After a vacancy of about six months, Rev. Dr. J. W. Richards took charge of the congregation in November, 1845. His administration was marked by pastoral diligence and prudence, and, despite the secession of Christ Church and the distractions through which the congregation had but recently passed, the membership was increased to more than its original strength. In 1846 the parsonage adjoining the church was built, at an expense of about twenty nine hundred dollars. He preached his farewell sermon March 9, 1851, to assume charge of his ancestral church, at Reading. He left a record of the officers of the church at the time of his departure. Of the nine elders then in office not one survives; of the six deacons but three, in the persons of John Able, then marked Jr., Robert T. Horn and J. I. Bauer, still active members of the St. John's Church of to-day. With Zachariah (1:5) we may ask: "your fathers, where are they? and the prophets, do they live forever?" From Dr. Richard's day forward, the events of the lives of your pastors are so familiar to most of you that brevity of statement will have to be considered. Dr. Richards was born in Reading April 18, 1803. He was a grandson of Dr. Henry Mel-chior Muhlenberg, the Patriarch of our church on this continent. He studied...
