The History of St. Paul’s

Being the oldest Lutheran Church in Erie County, St. Paul’s has a very long history!

After nearly 200 years and 26 Pastors, St. Paul’s Lutheran Church is looking forward to another two centuries serving the local community of Eggertsville and beyond. 

It would take a whole other website to accurately document our entire history. For those over achievers out there in cyber space, we have two PDF Documents for you to read through below!
