Faith Lutheran Church, formerly known as Salem Lutheran Church, is a historic church at 199 Granite Street in Quincy, Massachusetts. The church was built in 1894 to serve a growing congregation of Scandinavians who had come to Quincy to work in its granite quarries. The stones for this granite Gothic Revival church building were hauled and ressed by members of the congregation. Its only major modification since its construction has been the addition of a chapel in 1914.[2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.[1]
