In 1816, Prussian authorities directed Protestant colonizers, who originated mainly from Brandenburg and had lived near Białystok until then, to the Rogiedle farm in the area of the historical region of Warmia (Ermland). After four years of using the land property, their right to this land was confirmed. Up to 1831, the number of people in this religious community increased. However, later a decrease was observed, which was caused mainly by migration. The priest from Dobre Miasto, who came to Rogiedle six times a year in order to celebrate religious services in the local Evangelical school, was responsible for the pastoral care of this community. On 6 August 1894, vicar Carl Richard Hilbrandt moved to the aforesaid place. The decision to buy the estate, which belonged to widow Heckmann, with a plan to create church facilities, was made fairly quickly. In 1900, thanks to the help of Gustav-Adolf-Verein (Gus-tav Adolf Union), a church in Rogiedle was built. The decision to create an Evangelical parish (United Church) in the place was issued on 22 June 1901. It became valid on 1 July 1901.
