Germantown Colony and Museum is an historical preservation project north of Minden in Webster Parish in northwestern Louisiana, USA. It was among three sites in Louisiana founded by former members of the Utopian Movement called the Harmony Society in the early 19th century. The original colonists came from Germany, having first settled in Harmony, Pennsylvania in 1803, then in New Harmony, Indiana in 1814, and then in Economy (now Ambridge, Pennsylvania) in 1825. About 250 former members of the Harmony Society, many of whom left Economy, Pennsylvania during 1832, decided to leave due to disagreements over the society's custom of celibacy, and so they followed a man named Bernhard Müller, who called himself "Count de Leon". Their first settlement as the New Philadelphian Congregation (New Philadelphia Society) was in Phillipsburg (now Monaca, Pennsylvania) in 1832. Perhaps because of ongoing litigation, and other financial problems, Müller's group decided to sell their communal land in Pennsylvania in 1833. Some community members stayed, while others followed Müller and his family down the Ohio River on a flatboat. Soon they started again at Grand Ecore, twelve miles North of Natchitoches, Louisiana; and there, in August, 1834, Müller died of yellow fever and was buried. When the "Count" died, a congressman passed a bill donating a tract of land to the colonists and "Countess von Leon", and Germantown Colony was formed.

Louisiana Missionary Baptist Institute and Seminary is an unaccredited religious institution located in Minden, the seat of Webster Parish in northwestern Louisiana. The seminary was launched in 1952 by Arkansas native L.L. Clover (1902-1975), then pastor of Calvary Missionary Baptist Church of Minden, the sponsoring church, which was itself formed in 1930. The seminary is located in a new building at 102 Seminary Lane off the Homer Road adjacent to the Calvary church sanctuary. It is affiliated with the theologically conservative American Baptist Association, with headquarters at 4605 North State Line Avenue in Texarkana, Texas. The new Louisiana Missionary Baptist Institute and Seminary building is adjacent to the new Calvary Missionary Baptist Church in Minden, Louisiana. The seminary offers the bachelor's, master's, and doctor of theology degrees, with Hebrew and Greek. It is unaccredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools. Degrees from LMBIS are used primarily within the Missionary Baptist denomination. One of its first graduates, with a bachelor of theology, was Jimmy G. Tharpe (1930-2008), a native of Sibley in Webster Parish and a long-time pastor of the Baptist Tabernacle in Shreveport and subsequently the founder of Louisiana Baptist University, an Independent Baptist institution, also in Shreveport. Tharpe recalled having studied in Clover's home while the original seminary building on the Shreveport Road was being constructed. Though the school started with only two students, there were forty-four by the end of the first year. Not all were preparing for the pastoral ministry. Numerous Missionary Baptist pastors in the Louisiana, Arkansas, and Texas region are graduates of LMBIS. Joe Morell, a missionary to Lithuania, formerly pastored Greenacres Missionary Baptist Church in Bossier City. Jerrell W. Head pastored churches in Texas and worked for a time as a missionary in Mexico before he began a mission in Stonewall in DeSoto Parish. Bryan Sellers, a 2000 graduate of LMBIS originally from Ruston, is pastor of the Valley Landmark Missionary Baptist Church in Spokane, Washington. Richard D. Methvin (born 1960), previously a farmer, assumed the pastorate of Eastside Missionary Baptist Church in Minden in 1998. Originally a mission established by Calvary church in 1955, Eastside unveiled a $2.3 million sanctuary early in 2008 to replace the previous main building constructed in 1965. Previous Eastside pastors also affiliated with LMBIS were Austin T. Powers (1896-1975) of Texarkana and Roy E. Chapman (1932-1994).
