On December 6, 1880, Landstad Lutheran Congregation was organized at the home of Ole J. Lee. Rev. A. O. Megrund presided at the meeting attended by Jens Anderson, Iver J. Crosby, John O. Gaare,  Peder  Johannesson, Halvor Kroshus, and Nels Odegaard.  On April 25, 1891, its members joined with others to create Bethania Lutheran Church and erect a church building. In July 1952 a tornado damaged the church steeple. It was replaced by the current, smaller one.  At the same time the entrance to the church was changed from the west to the south side.  The church was disbanded in the 1990's. The church building is still used for special gatherings.
