The settlement was established in 1894 and consisted of two villages; the congregation was organized in 1901. Cornelius Harder was the first leading minister, assisted by Jacob Enns and Jacob Janzen. In 1905 the total membership of the church was 405, with 173 baptized members. Little is known about the later development of the congregation.
