Mindekirken: Against The Current, 2022
"Mindekirken: Against The Current" tells the story of the founding of Mindekirken in 1922. It describes the context in which it was born and examines how young people in the Phillips neighborhood worked to found an exclusively Norwegian speaking congregation, going against the currents of the day. It tells of the building of the church edifice from 1926-1930, led by Pastor Christian Munson, and finished just as the Great Depression struck. The group was left with an enormous debt. When Pastor Elias Rasmussen came to serve the congregation, it had a debt of almost $250,000 and not quite $50 in the bank. The book tells the story of how the congregation emerged from the Depression, lived through World War II, and the Fifties, and the work of their diligent pastors, Mons Wee, Anders Hulteng, Christian Munson, and Elias Rasmussen. -
