The Silver Bend Lutheran Church, so named because the Silver Bend School was erected beside it at one point, has a short, uneventful history. Originally built around 1934 under the name of St. John's Lutheran Church, much volunteer work was put into its building. The pews and altar were built by a Mr. John Thimm, while the organ was donated by the Stroh family. The church served faithfully until the sixties, when it closed down, and tragically, on July 9th, 1977, the building and all its furnishings were destroyed by fire.
