St. Paul's Lutheran Church

St. Paul's Evangelical Lutheran Church was organized in 1881. With the Methodists building a new church on property located on First Street, the congregation sold the small church on Maple Street to the newly formed St. Paul's Lutheran Church. As the years passed, the congregation of St. Paul's began to grow and it was decided that a new building should be constructed. In 1890, two lots located on the corner of Fourth and McKee streets were purchased and work soon began on the construction of the new church. On September 14, 1890, the cornerstone for the building was laid with longtime pastor, Rev. A Moussa officiating. Over the decades, the church continued to renovate and update its building as well as reinvigorate its congregation.
