A Brief History of St. Paul’s

 

St. Paul’s Lutheran Church was founded in 1884 in Durango in an older Baptist Church.  It was the 4th organized Lutheran Church of the Western District in the state of Colorado.  The first Church building was constructed in Durango about 1890 on east 4th Ave., and the first parochial school was founded in 1892, which is the same year the congregation voted to join the Missouri Synod.  The congregation remained in the 4th Ave. location until it built a new church on the present-day location in 1961.  This church was burned to the ground in October of 1971 and was rebuilt and dedicated in September of 1973.  It has had one 2,000 sq. ft. addition completed in the 1980’s and the last one in 2006 to bring it to the existing facility of today.

We are glad that you are visiting our site.  We would like to take this time to extend an invitation to you to browse through the site so that you will understand what our church believes in and proclaims to the world.  By doing so, we hope you will feel inclined to attend our Sunday worship services to become better acquainted with us.

St. Paul’s is a member church of the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod.
