When First Lutheran Church was founded in 1858, all the services were in Swedish. Above the altar in the worship room can still be found the words: "Saliga äro de som höra Gud's ord och gömma det" - When First Lutheran Church was founded in 1858, all the services were in Swedish. Above the altar in the worship room can still be found the words:
"Saliga äro de som höra Gud's ord och gömma det"
Which translates to:
"Blessed are they who hear God's word and keep it."
