Lutheran Church of the Good Shepherd, January 28, 1913. The building at 7420 Fourth Avenue was originally located at the corner of 68th Street and Third Avenue where it served the congregation of the Christ Episcopal Church. That parish moved to a new site and the little church structure was moved a few blocks for a new congregation. Lutheran Church of the Good Shepard had their first services on March 17, 1910 to celebrate Easter.
