Our Church Home
"Come and See" said Jesus in John 1:39. We invite you to come and see what St. James Lutheran has to offer. We offer you many opportunities to find the comfort and rest of knowing Jesus Christ as your savior and friend. Through our opportunities for worship, Christian education, fellowship and many other activities plus our community support and outreach, we hope you will find what you have been searching for. So, come and see. We are here to welcome you.
What We Believe
We believe that we are a part of the "body of Christ", a part of a community of faith that began with the gift of the Holy Spirit - God's presence with His people. We are a fellowship of those who have been restored to God by Christ. We believe we are called into a community with other believers.

Church History
The St. James Lutheran Church was organized in the year 1891. The Rev. Conrad Weltner of Vilmar, Iowa had preached in and around the Allison community for at least a year prior to that date. The records show that twenty members formed the congregation, and until 1913 the congregation held services in the former Methodist Church of Allison.
