The Lebanon Lutheran Church [2] in South Dakota was established by Norwegian immigrants to the Sisseton-Wahpeton (Lake Traverse) Sioux Indian Reservation. It was the first Norwegian Lutheran church in that area predating congregations in nearby Ortley and Summit.[citation needed] It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1977.[3]
During the mid-1960s, Lebanon Church experienced a decline in its rural population. Consequently, it merged with Zion Lutheran Church (Ortley) and Summit Lutheran Church, forming a new entity known as Hope Lutheran Church in Summit, SD.
Regular Sunday services ceased at that point, although the property continues to be maintained and is utilized periodically for special events relating primarily to the history of the church or descendants of the parishioners.
