Our Campus
The land where St. Paul’s is located has
been its home since 1860. In 1928, the
cornerstone was laid for the present
church. Completed in 1929 and dedicated
in 1942, this building remains the chief
tangible treasure of our parish, a Gothic
Revival church of locally quarried stone,
carved oak, and stained glass. Our church is
the center of life at St. Paul’s.
The main building includes a Parish
Hall (located where the church’s 1860s
sanctuary stood), meeting rooms, and
office spaces. It is bridged to the church
by a wing of Sunday School rooms. The
Parish Hall is used for parish meetings,
church social events, and receptions after
weddings and funerals. It is also available
for rent to non-parish groups.
