History

Redeemer Lutheran Church was founded in Owatonna, Minnesota in 1883 by a small group of German Lutherans and was originally named First St. John's Evangelical Lutheran Church. The congregation's first house of worship was built in 1894 on State Avenue in Owatonna. Our current house of worship is located at the corner of Truman Avenue and Havana Road in southeast Owatonna and was dedicated to the glory of God in 1960.

In the 1980's Redeemer started a daughter congregation, Good Shepherd Lutheran Church, in northeast Owatonna. In addition to its newly-formed Health Ministries Committee, the congregation supports active Sunday School, Vacation Bible School and Fellowship programs. The members of the congregation continue to look for new ways to reach out to the community and the world with the saving Gospel of Jesus Christ.
