St. Paul’s Celebrates its 250th Anniversary | Village of Alamance, NC

St. Paul’s Lutheran Church (1770-2020) celebrates its 250th Anniversary in 2020 with events planned throughout the year!

Grace and peace to you from God our Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ,

 

It is with great joy and thanksgiving that we announce the 250th anniversary of St. Paul’s Lutheran Church (1770 – 2020). Additionally we will also mark 200 years of Mt. Pleasant Lutheran Chapel. We have a number of events planned throughout 2020 to celebrate this anniversary as we commemorate our history and look to the future with anticipation.  Below, you will see a list of “save the dates” for these planned events.  We are happy to extend the invitation to all our past and present members, extended family, and our surrounding community to come and rejoice with us as you are able.
