The American Lutheran Church of to-day is the monument of the labors of Muehlenberg.
The brief remainder of Zinzendorf's work in America may be briefly told.
There is no doubt that, like many another eager and hopeful reformer, he overestimated the strength and solidity of the support that was given to his generous and beneficent plans.

At the time of Muehlenberg's arrival Zinzendorf was the elected and installed pastor of the Lutheran congregation in Philadelphia.

The conflict could not be a long one between the man who claimed everything for his commission and his sect and the man who was resolved to insist on nothing for himself.
Notwithstanding the strong love for him among the people, Zinzendorf was easily displaced from his official station.

When dispute arose about the use of the empty carpenter's shop that stood them instead of a church, he waived his own claims and at his own cost built a new house of worship.

But it was no part of his work to stay and persist in maintaining a division.
