First Lutheran Church has its roots among Swedish Immigrants who came to the Hinckley area in the late 19th century. The congregation was chartered as the Swedish Evangelical Lutheran Church of Hinckley in 1883. Three years later the congregation moved into its first building which measured 18 by 30 feet.

Eight years later, The Great Hinckley Fire destroyed the first church building along with most of the community on September 1. Undaunted, the congregation moved into a newly erected building by Christmas of that same year.

The modern First Lutheran was built in 1990 and is located across the street from this site.
