St. Paul's Lutheran Church (now Christine's Restaurant)

The church building that now houses Christine's Restaurant was built in 1910 by a group of men "with a vision." St. Paul's Evangelical Lutheran Church held its first services in the building in 1911. From the day the doors opened until 1959, all services were conducted in German. In 1972, the final church service was held due to declining attendance and membership. Over the years the former church was used as an antique shop, a funeral home, and even as a weekend "get-away" for one local owner. Mike and Christine Laurent purchased the building in 2004 and began renovations. Christine's opened for business in January 2005.
