This congregation was formed in 1909 with worship in homes. The church was built in 1910 approximately 10k (6 miles) south east of Bateman. Later a parsonage was also built. In 1919 the church became affiliated with the Missouri Synod due to lack of ministers from the Ohio Synod. The parsonage was moved to Bateman in 1950 as well as the church in 1951. A Federated Parish was formed in 1972 with St. Paul's Gravelbourg and Trinity in Mossbank. Peace Lutheran Church closed June 28th, 1998.
