      Reverend W. Gaertner, 1889-1895

      Reverend William Gaertner was called to the Jackson church in the fall of 1889. He was a strict churchman and introduced a more formal type of worship. The name of the church was changed and incorporated to The German Emmanuel Evangelical Church of Jackson, Cape Girardeau County, Missouri. . . . Under Reverend Gaertner's leadership the membership increased in numbers and a schoolroom was added to the church building. The Twenty-Fifth Anniversary of the church was observed and the church united with the Evangelical Synod of North America."
