University Lutheran Church and Student Center
History

University Lutheran Church and Student Center has had a history of serving the residents and students of Tallahassee for several years.  The first years of University Lutheran were solely devoted to reaching out to Lutheran students on the campuses of the Tallahassee higher education institutions.  Since 1999, University Lutheran has reached out to both students and to residents of the Tallahassee area.

In 1964, after fifteen years of assigning nearby pastors to serve as campus chaplains, the District undertook a full-time campus ministry.  It called Rev. David Kruse as Campus Pastor, purchased propert at West Jefferson Street, and remodeled the two bedroom house into Luther House.

Luther House included a chapel and recreation center for Lutherans who attended FSU, Florida A&M, and Tallahassee Community College.  In 1965 the District purchased an adjoining lot to construct a multi-purpose facility. 

That facility is where University Lutheran continues to do ministry even today.

We are continuing to update our history page.  If you have a question about our history or if you have a historical article or artifact, please contact Pastor Jay.
