The resolution commends St. John's Evangelical Protestant Church on the significant milestone of its 150th Anniversary. Founded by Colonel Johann Gottgried Cullmann and five families, the church has a rich history that reflects the evolution of its community, transitioning from German-speaking services to accommodating an English-speaking congregation. Over the years, the church has adapted through various affiliations, including its merger with the Reformed Church and later with the Congregational Christian churches, ultimately becoming part of the United Church of Christ.

Under the leadership of Senior Pastor Reverend Dr. John Richter, St. John's continues to thrive, offering a range of worship services, small groups, and community outreach programs. The resolution expresses high regard for the church and its leadership, wishing them continued success and blessings as they celebrate this significant anniversary.
