| Additional Information: | Bay Shore Lutheran Church was organized as a mission in the fall of 1929, led by Rev. A. V. Baughman. Services took place in a non-extant simple, white, wood framed chapel, designed by Roy Papenthien and located originally at the southwest corner of Hampton Road and Marlborough Drive. After six years, the chapel was moved to the current site, remodeled, and enlarged. By late 1949, the extant structure was constructed by the Arthur C. Wolff Company at 1200 E. Hampton Road, and the chapel was moved just to the north. After being used for several years by Congregation Shalom, the chapel was demolished in 1967 to make room for educational facilities and additional parking. |
