The Poplar River Congregation was organized in 1885 by pastor Rev. L.J. Jerdee who organized several churches in the area. The first worship services were held in homes and Rev. Jerdee served from 1885 - 1889. The church was erected in Fosston in 1894 and was used until Poplar River Church merged with Landstad in 1941.

The name of the church was later changed from Landstad to Hope Lutheran.

Sorry, no cemetery listing at this time. If you want to walk the cemetery and transcribe the stones and submit them to us, contact the county coordinator.
