The Rev. Albert Haupert succeeded Pastor Groenfeldt in 1905. In 1909 the parsonage was remodeled to make it "a ten room house with all the modern conveniences." Pastor Haupert was a great Sunday School advocate and worker and found that the church was inadequate for a "progressive, up-to date Sunday School."
So in 1911 another renovation occurred and the congregation again used the nearby Baptist Chapel during the construction period. A basement was placed under the entire church, a Sunday School addition was put on the east, the pews were again reversed and the old chapel housed the pulpit and the new Terp memorial pipe organ given by Iver. Terp in memory of his wife Mamie.
The ground was broken for this work on July 6th, and the dedication was held on Sunday, November 12th. The morning attendance was 223, with 112 staying for Holy Communion. Sunday School attendance that day was 171. A Scandinavian service was held in the afternoon with 39 attending and 19 staying for communion. 115 people attended the evening service. The cost of these changes was $7,000 which included the $1220.00 organ.
On February 10th, 1914, the congregation was incorporated with the signatures of Isaac Torgerson, Arthur Stram, James P. Lindell, V. Howard Larsen, and Albert P. Haupert. Brother Haupert's pastorate came to an end on September 12, 1915.
