Grace Lutheran Church in DeWitt
On December 18, the members of Grace Lutheran Church held their 4th German Language Christmas Service. Over 120 people came from all over the area and enjoyed the authentic ethnic experience; honoring the Schleswig Holstein Heritage Society Chorus of Davenport, under the direction of Herr Henry Storjohann. The guest preacher is Rev. Dr. Jason Soenksen, Associate Professor of Theology at Concordia University Wisconsin in Mequon. Dr. Soenksen grew up in DeWitt as a member of Grace. Afterwards fellowship was shared with wonderful German treats and continued with more great German Christmas music.
