The Neu Kronsfeld Evangelical Lutheran congregation was organized in 1911, this congregation worked together with Good Hope Church, the members never had a pastor who they could call their own. No parsonage was ever built and a pastor never became resident in the congregation. The pastor lived in a parsonage at the Good Hope church site. Some of the founding families were the August Kindopps, Jacob Herters, and the C. Grishowsbys. The first congregation consisted of about fifteen families. Mr. Jakob Herter donated two acres of land for the church site and was paid $25.00 for the third acre. Reverend Shorman was the first Pastor, followed by Reverend Schmidt in 1929 Reverend Manz in the mid 1930's, Reverend Trelle in 1938 and Reverend Jute in 1948. A meeting held November 27, 1917, indicated that a building be moved onto this site. A large barn was built on the property in 1918. This barn was sold for $40.00 in 1961 to Henry Elle. There were the usual trying times during the depression years, but the congregation managed to pay its accounts and maintain a regular Sunday service. The minutes were recorded in German up to January 07, 1947 at which time Otto Schwab started recording them in English. English hymnbooks were introduced in 1954. On June 12, 1948, the congregation decided to purchase the Schmidt Church located five miles east of Burstall, Saskatchewan, for $1000.00. They sold their old building to Jakob Herter for $275.00. The dedication service September 19, 1948, was conducted by Reverend Trelle and Jute with about two hundred persons attending. Other pastors who served this station were: Webber in 1951, Emil Krause, Behrens from 1960 to 1963, Odeman to April 1967 and Score through May 1967. By the mid 1960's new problems plagued the congregation, attendance was declining and meetings were not being supported. The last budget set in 1969 called for the expenditure of$2500.00. The whole parish was no longer able to support one pastor. A motion to disband was made June 05, 1970. The assets were disposed and the church building was sold to A. Zollner for $200.00. All that remains is the one acre plot that holds the sleeping pioneers. This cemetery is located seven miles west and four miles north of Golden Prairie, Saskatchewan.
