Origins

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 Evangelical Lutheran church.
This is the origin of the German Evangelical Lutheran congregation in Liverpool. After using many different buildings for worship and education, it built its own structure in 1960.
