TWENTY-FIVE Years
have passed since the founding of the Aspinwall Evangelical Lutheran
Church. The first move in this direction was a
meeting held at the home of Mr. H. R. Marshall, on April 17, 1894. The first service was held in the Aspinwall Presbyterian Church, April 22,
1894. The first effort at Sunday School Organization took place on April 29, 1894, with the selection of temporary officers. On June 3,
permanent Sunday School officers were chosen, Mr. L. Freidel being named as Superintendent; this organization, however, later disbanded.
On April 15, 1895, was held, a meeting in the Borough School, at which time the purchase of church lots was discussed. The charter
membership list of this date shows the following names: H. R. Marshall, Mrs. J. M. Beveridge, Mrs. John Adams, Mrs. Wm. Heerlein, Mrs. K.

On June 20,
1895, the
present church lots were purchased. The church constitution was adopted
on May 20, 1895. The first church officers were elected on May 26, on
which date were also elected Sunday School officers; Mr. J. L. Lytle
was elected Superintendent, and has served in this honorable capacity
since that time.
January 1, 1896, Rev. H. C. Reller assumed his duties as pastor. The church building, shown on this page was dedicated on June 14, 1896. The church became self-supporting on Oct. 1, 1904. On February 23, 1905, the mortgage was burned. In 1906. extensive repairs were made. At a congregational meeting, Nov. 6, 1912, it was decided to enlarge and improve the church building. The contract was let on Feb. 24, to Mr. C. P. Illig; ground was broken on March 25, 1913. The new church was dedicated on Nov. 23, 1913, Revs. Turkle and Crouse preaching the sermons. In September, 1916, Rev. Reller tendered his resignation, severing a relation which had lasted for twenty years. For some time the congregation was without a leader. |

| In the spring of
1917, Rev. Kinports was called to become pastor and assumed the work on
June 24, 1917. For over two years he served the congregation and
resigned to take effect September 7, 1919. Rev. Rudisill was called to the leadership of the congregation and took up the work October 1, 1920. On March 21, by a unanimous vote of the congregation, it was decided to build a parsonage on the lots beside the church. The balance of the $975 debt was subscribed on Easter Monday night and the mortgage will be burned at the Anniversary Service, Sunday, June 6, 1920 |

REV.
EARL
S.
RUDISILL
Rev. Earl S. Rudisill
was born at Gettysburg. Pennsylvania, 1891. He received his early
education in the public schools. Later he attended Gettysburg High
School and completed his preparatory work in Gettysburg Academy. He
entered Penna. College in the fell of 1908, and graduated with the
Class of 1912, with the A. B. degree. In the autumn of 1912, he
began the theological course in the Lutheran Theological Seminary,
Gettysburg; he graduated in 1915, with the degree of B. D.
Rev. Rudisill was licensed in 1914, at Hanover, Penna. Upon graduation he was called to become pastor of the newly founded St. Stephen's Lutheran Church, of Chicago, and assumed this work June 1, 1915. He was ordained at Lena. Ill., October 15, 1915. On August 20, 1915, he was united in marriage to Miss L. Grace Mehring, of Littlestown. Pa. During his pastorate at St. Stephen's, the congregation was built from thirteen to one hundred and seventy, the Sunday School from forty-two to four hundred and twenty-five, and the Brotherhood came to be recognized as one of the best among the Lutheran Churches of Chicago. During a part of this time, Pastor Rudisill pursued postgraduate work in the Divinity School of the University of Chicago, while Mrs. Rudisill studied at the Moody Bible Institute and the Chicago Musical College. Rev. Rudisill has continued postgraduate studies at the University of Pittsburgh since here. |

|
While in Chicago the
Rudisill home was brightened by the advent on July 25, 1917, of Fred
Luther, who has since been an inspiration to Pastor and Mrs. Rudisill
in their efforts.
In the early days of the work at St. Stephen's, Mrs. Rudisill carried a large part of the work, being the head of practically all organizations. Gradually this work was distributed, as workers were developed, as it should be in a well organized church. In August, 1919, Rev. Rudisill was called to become pastor of this congregation. The call was accepted and he assumed the work October 1. He labors here now in the hope and prayer that God will see fit to lead the Aspinwall Lutheran Congregation into a thoroughly progressive life, a larger membership, a deeper spirituality, a Christian liberality and a thorough submission to God's will. |

REV. H. C. KELLER Rev. Herman C.
Keller, the first pastor of the Aspinwall Lutheran Church, was born in
Miltonsburg, Ohio. He attended the public school in that place
until 1883, when he moved to Columbia, Penna. There he attended the
high school.
In the fall of 1884, he entered Susquehanna University; he remained there two years. In 1886, he entered Pennsylvania College, Gettysburg, Pa., and graduated in the Class of 1890. He graduated from the Theological Seminary in 1893. He was ordained to the Gospel Ministry at Harrisburg, in the fall of 1893. He served the Emanuel Lutheran Church of Freeport, from 1893 to 1901; the last five years in connection with the Aspinwall Church. In 1901, the relationship between those two churches ceased, and the Aspinwall Church received the pastor's full time to September, 1916, thus serving our congregation for twenty years. His was the privilege and joy of bringing the church from infancy to self-support, of building and enlarging the church edifice. |

REV. P. M. KINPORTS
Rev. Paul M.
Kinports, the second pastor of this church, was born at Annville,
Penna., in 1892. He was baptized and confirmed in the Lutheran faith in
youth. He attended Susquehanna University, graduating from that
institution with the Class of 1914, taking the A. B. degree. His
theological education was received at the Susquehanna Theological
Seminary; he graduated there with the degree of A. M., in 1917.
Rev. Kinports was ordained to the Gospel Ministry at Hughesville, Penna., May 11, 1917. He was called to become pastor of the Aspinwall Lutheran Church and began his ministry here June 24, 1917. He served as pastor of this congregation until September 7, 1919, when he accepted a call to become pastor of the Grace Lutheran Church of Monongahela, Penna., where he is now serving. It was his to serve the congregation during the trying days of the Great War, with all the extra burdens which the ministry was called upon to bear during that period. A good number of persons were added to the congregation during Rev. Kinport's pastorate. |

REV. JAMES E. MacDONALD
Rev. James E.
MacDonald, son of Mr. and Mrs. J. L. MacDonald, was born December 8,
1892. He was confirmed in this Church in 1907.
Rev. MacDonald attended the Aspinwall High School, graduating with the Class of 1912. He then entered Pennsylvania College, Gettysburg, Penna., and graduated from that institution with the A. B. Degree in 1916. He received his theological education at the Lutheran Theological Seminary at Gettysburg, graduating in 1919. He was called in August, 1919, to become pastor of the Fryburg, Pa., pastorate, and took up his work there September 1, 1919. Rev. MacDonald is the first and only man this congregation has sent into the ministry, and he is an honor to the church. May the Lord bless him in his work, and may the Aspinwall congregation send many more men into the Gospel Ministry. "The harvest indeed is plenteous, but the laborers are few." Matthew 9:37. |

THE CHURCH COUNCIL
The
Church Council is
the governing hoard of the Church. It consists of the pastor, who is
President, ex-officio, and eight representatives of the congregation,
half of whom are elected each autumn, and who serve two years. No
Councilman may succeed himself more than once, after which he must he
out of office one year before he is again eligible to the office. The
Council re-organizes itself yearly. It handles all ordinary business of
the congregation; matters of major importance are submitted to the
congregation for action. This body meets the first Monday of each month.
