Many of those from these families were among the original members of Tromso Lutheran Church and were some of the first officers. As more and more Norwegian immigrants settled in the Lake Lillian community the need of a Lutheran Church became necessary for Christian fellowship. On August 16, 1885 a group met in the home of Erik Larson and the Tromsø Lutheran Church was organized affiliated with the Norwegian Lutheran Conference. The name Tromsø was chosen because most of the charter members were from the Tromsø area of northern Norway. By 1895 the church building was complete. At times the church was called the Lutheran Free Church because of the later affiliation with the Lutheran Free Church Synod.
In 1946 a new church building was completed in the village of Lake Lillian and the name of the congregation was changed to Grace Lutheran Church. In 1951 the church cemetery was named the Tromso Memorial Cemetery in memory of the founders of the congregation.
Grace Lutheran Church has merged with First Lutheran Church in Lake Lillian and is now the United Lutheran Church and the former First Lutheran Church building is being used.
