Shepherd of the Hills Lutheran Church in Richfield is celebrating their Golden Anniversary. The fall of 2017 marks the 50th year as a church in Washington County.
Back in 1967, church members started meeting at the Richfield Fire Station on Hwy 175 until ground was broken on the existing grounds at 1350 Hwy 175 in Hubertus. 97 persons signed the charter membership document and were received as a congregation of the Lutheran Church in America (LCA). Current membership is 792 persons.

The original church was expanded in 1985 with a new sanctuary and another remodel in 2004. The current church structure was built and dedicated in 2010. Part of the original church on property is now used as a pavilion for church. Worship services occur at 8:30 traditional and 10:30 a.m. contemporary on Sunday mornings.
