Independence was founded on faith. Join the Independence Historical Society as we journey back to the beginning of the four cornerstone faiths that have anchored our community: Presbyterian, Methodist, Catholic, and Lutheran. These four denominations have been part of our community for nearly two centuries. They have stories to share, depictions of their earliest beginnings, relics from the past, and hopes for the future. Hear their stories and discover how their collective faith of 690 years has served the Independence community.
