Lostwood Mennonite Church (General Conference Mennonite) in Mountrail County, North Dakota, now extinct, was founded in 1923 by five families with 12 charter members, who had settled here from Mountain Lake, Minnesota about 1916. The meetinghouse was built two miles (3 km.) west of Lostwood in 1923. In 1929 the membership reached its high point with 60.
