St. Philip's Ev. Lutheran Church Detroit

St. Philip's Ev. Lutheran Church Detroit In-Person Worship Service each Sunday at 11:00 a.m. with communion. St. Philip's Lutheran Church, founded 1934, was the first black Lutheran church in Michigan. J.

The Reverend H. Storm came to Detroit from his Windsor parish to lead St. Philip's congregation each week until 1936, when the Reverend Raymond R. Pollatz became the church's first resident pastor. The parish soon moved from its one-room apartment to a school and later to a remodeled synagogue on King Street. The parish dedicated the building at this location on May 20, 1951. As the only black Lut

heran church in Michigan in the 1930s, St. Philip's expanded quickly. Berea Lutheran, St Titus, and St. Mathias churches all grew from the original congregation. Philip's chose quality education for blacks as one of its missions. In 1944 it opened St. Philip's Day School in the basement of the church on King Street. The church was the first Lutheran school in Michigan open to black students, and many of Detroit's black leaders attended it.
