Red River Valley Conference information


The Red River Valley Conference was formed from a portion of the Lutheran Minnesota Conference of the Augustana Evangelical Lutheran Church in 1912. In 1941, the Red River Valley Conference absorbed the Bismarck and Sheyenne districts of North Dakota, previously of the Minnesota Conference.[1] Initially, the conference included the Red River Valley and North Dakota to the west and extended to the St. Paul District to the east, covering about 300 miles (480 km) west to east and 50 miles (80 km) north to south.

Organizations within the Red River Valley Conference included the Women's Missionary Society, Young Women's Society, Junior Missionary Society, Luther League, and Lutheran Brotherhood. The conference's Board of Charities also proposed and managed Warren Hospital, Bethany Home for the Aged, and Bethany Children’s Home.[1]

Red River Valley Conference had four educational institutions, all in Minnesota. They were Hope Academy in Moorhead (1888–1896), Lund Academy in Christine Lake (1899–1901), Northwestern College in Fergus Falls (1900–1932), and North Star College in Warren (1908–1936).[1]
