Welcome to the history pages of St. Paul's Anglican Church.  When I had volunteered my time to this web site, I hadn't realized how much I'd learn from putting these pages together.  I considered a history page as standard fare for a church web site. Sometimes putting content into a web page is easy especially when the information is available in an electronic file format.  Sometimes however, the electronic format does not exist and it must be simply and painstakingly read and transcribed.

In creating these pages there was much to learn from the rich history behind St. Paul's.  We sometimes take it for granted and don't give much thought as to why or how things come to be.  St. Paul's, though small at the époque in comparison to other churches in the area, was built on a very strong foundation...  and I don't mean the building's brick or masonry work, but a strong foundation of people, both clergy and congregation.   A strong foundation of people who may have lived different lives in a different era from ours but much like us prayed, worshipped and sought the guidance of our Lord through life's trials and tribulations.  Throughout the years gone by, sometimes shaken but always rebounding, this very same foundation today is still very evident in all of us at St. Paul's.  

I hope you all enjoy what you will read in the pages to follow as much as I have enjoyed putting them together.  I recommend you follow the links to the left in the same order listed.  Please be patient if you are on a dialup connection, as some of the links will also download pictures.
