Abstract
The Lutheran Church in the Canadian Northwest is made up of believers from all parts of Europe and the United States. In coming to this newly opened last American frontier as early as 1872 and continuing sporadically ever since, these immigrants brought their curious customs, costumes, languages and dialects with them. This strange mixture of prospective Lutheran Canadians was providentially gathered to make a church which "in spite of its confusing overlapping of unrelated synods and without the slightest semblance of compulsory discipline still has an amazing unity in diversity."
