History

There was a German Congregational Church in Cheyenne, Wyoming, as early as 1886 where pastor J. Lange served from 1886-1888. This congregational appears to have disbanded.

Eventually another group later established Zion Congregational Church which was organized in Cheyenne, Wyoming, in 1923.
