History from the church web page:
The foundation of what is now Faith Lutheran Church, in North Bend, OR has been in North Bend for 100 years this year. It was originally a community of Norwegians who were a part of one of the Norwegian synods of its time. They struggled for years to stay a community and ultimately joined other Lutherans in the area, forming a worshiping community which became Grace Lutheran Church led by a pastor from the Missouri Synod.
They worshiped in the Norwegian building for a number of years until in the early 1950's the Missouri Lutheran Church decided to build a new building outside of North Bend. The families of the original Norwegian congregation decided to remain in North Bend and became a part of the American Lutheran Church in 1958 which means that the present congregation is 50 yrs old this year.
