Immanuel, or “God with us”, was the name which the Immanuel Evangelical Lutheran Congregation of Palatine, Cook County, Illinois chose for itself 150 years ago. As we look back over those 150 years we can definitely say God has been, is, and will be with us! 150 years of God’s own Word, regular preaching, Holy Sacraments, grace, love, protection, comfort, instruction, admonition – 150 years of genuine blessing has been the gift of God to Immanuel. For this undeserved mercy, we give thanks, praise, honor and glory to God alone.
