Excerpt from The Story of the Immanuel Lutheran Church: Published in Connection With the Seventy-Fifth Anniversary Celebration of the Evangelical Lutheran Immanuel Church of Chicago, January 8-16, 1928 The records of the past contain a beautiful Immanuel story. It is a story of God's wonderful loving kindness. It is, as well, a story of faith and love, of prayers and labors, on the part of many devout followers of the Lord Jesus Christ. The circumstances connected with the present humble attempt to tell the story, and the limitations which the size and plan of this little book impose, have made it necessary to leave many interesting incidents untouched. Whether or not the best choice of material has been made, must be left to the judgment of others. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
