The original 1881 Spruce Hill Lutheran Church and Cemetery site was located on the Nels P. and Kari Hagblad property in section 28 of Spruce Hill Township.
In 1884, Ole Swenson donated a more suitable site in section 34 of Spruce Hill Township. A log Church was built in 1884 and was replaced by the present wood frame church building in 1902.
The first burial in the new cemetery site was Anna Peterson in March of 1890.
It has since been abandoned and was taken on by the Douglas County Historical Society and restored.
Currently, the Spruce Hill Church celebrates four events each year: Easter Sunrise service, Summer fest in June, a traditional Children's Christmas program, and the Harvest Festival.
The church and cemetery are open to the public all year.
