A Brief History of Redeemer Evangelical Lutheran Church

By the mercy of Almighty God, Redeemer Evangelical Lutheran Church in the Bronx, New York, was founded in 1928. Mark’s Lutheran Church in Yonkers who lived in the Wakefield section of the Bronx in New York City believed that they could, by God’s grace, start a mission east of the Woodlawn Cemetery instead of traveling south and then west over the 233rd Street Bridge to get to St. The first worship service for Redeemer Evangelical Lutheran Church was conducted in the afternoon on Sunday, April 15, 1928 in a rented storefront at 686 237th Street, just west of White Plains Road in the Bronx, New York City. Mark’s Lutheran Church in Yonkers, conducted worship services and served as the founding pastor. The small congregation grew and raised funds to purchase property and an adjacent building at the corner of Barnes and Boyd Avenues, not far from the storefront on 237th Street. A portable church building was assembled in 1929 on the purchased property, and Pastor William Bruening was installed as the first pastor. Read more at: www.redeemerlutheranbronx.org/about
