First Evangelical Lutheran Church in Hector was organized in 1890. First Lutheran came to be at its current location in 1958 with the building of the current church. We are a part of the Southwestern Minnesota Synod, which is part of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. As members of the ELCA, we believe that we are freed in Christ to serve and love our neighbor. With our hands, we do God's work of restoring and reconciling communities in Jesus Christ's name throughout the world
