Immanuel Mennonite Church (Delft, Minnesota, USA)Immanuel Mennonite Church (formerly General Conference Mennonite) is located at Delft, Cottonwood County, Minnesota. It was a member of the Northern District Conference, and organized on 28 July 1940 with a membership of 85. The group had previously been a part of the Gospel Mennonite Church at Mountain Lake and under its ministry. In 1897 a church was built 1.5 miles (2 km) west of Delft to facilitate the service. In 1906 this structure was moved to Delft, and in 1920 a new church was built. After its organization in 1940 the group had its own pastor. The membership in 1955 was 130, with W. M. McDowell as pastor. Sometime ca. 2002 the congregation withdrew from the conference (by then part of Mennonite Church USA).
