German-born Rev Schwarz Works to Build New Omaha Church
The Rev. Mr. Schwarz leads a thinly funded project to complete a nine to eleven room church in Omaha with a front tower. Wages are paid weekly while donations from friends nationwide and local churches push toward a $6,000 shortfall. A $2,500 parsonage sale and house to house campaigns bolster the effort as Schwarz also teaches German at the University of Omaha and serves as stated clerk of the presbytery.
