Origins

In the 1840s an English cleric from the Church of England came across a prayer meeting of some Germans in a disused ship on the River Mersey, a man was ordained and ministered to this congregation. Initially it was a German-speaking congregation in the Church of England, later to become affiliated with the Lutheran-Protestant church.
This is the origin of the German Lutheran-Protestant congregation in Liverpool. After using many different buildings for worship and education, it built its own structure in 1960.
