Who we are

St. Paul Lutheran Church of Shelby

Vision:

Christ’s Beacon on the Shelby hill

Mission:

Know God’s Word Live God’s Word Share God’s Word

Mission Statement:

As people of God we have Holy Scripture, God’s Word. Through the Scriptures, Jesus Christ, God’s Word made flesh, is revealed to us. By reading, studying, and understanding the Bible, we are able to move to a stronger relationship with God through Jesus Christ. Worship is based in the Word of God for the glory of God, for our Spiritual renewal, and is the center of our lives of faith. To have a clearer vision for our role in the Kingdom of God, it is therefore imperative that we KNOW God’s Word.

As people of God we have the model that Jesus Christ lived, demonstrating the life we are to live. As followers, carrying out his mission in the kingdom here on earth, we stand at the center of our community, looking outward, reaching outward. Through the grace of God we are called to a new life. We give up our own lives for the sake of Jesus, caring for others, including the elderly, the ill, those in need; reaching out to brothers and sisters in our community to help bring dignity, hope and justice to the children of God. Baptized into his death, we are baptized into his life and it is therefore our mission to LIVE God’s Word.

As people of God we have the commission to go out into the world, teaching, preaching, and baptizing. We are called upon to feed the hungry, to be caring, accepting, and supportive. We seek to be there when others are in need of help, to share and to love others of God’s creation. Through fellowship, working together we seek to be ambassadors for Christ. Jesus Christ lived his life reaching out to the poor and the outcast, and expects the same of us as we, through daily lives and actions, SHARE God’s Word.

St Paul Lutheran Church History

ST. PAUL LUTHERAN CHURCH (DIE DEUTSCHE EVANGELISCHE LUTHERISCHE SAINT PAULUS GEMEINDE)

ON APRIL 26, 1903, FIFTEEN MEMBERS OF LOCAL CHURCH DIE FRIEDENS GEMEINDE ORGANIZED A NEW CHURCH CALLED DIE DEUTSCHE EVANGELISCHE LUTHERISCHE SAINT PAULUS GEMEINDE, OR ST. PAUL GERMAN EVANGELICAL LUTHERAN CONGREGATION. THE REV. ALBERT JULIUS FUENNING WAS THE CONGREGATION'S FIRST PASTOR, ALSO SERVING A CHURCH IN HAW CREEK, SOUTHWEST OF SHELBY. FUENNING PASTORED UNTIL FALL OF 1904, WHEN THE ST. PAUL CONGREGATION CALLED THE REV. A. WENZEL OF THE MISSOURI SYNOD. THAT YEAR, CHURCH TRUSTEES BUILT A SANCTUARY AT THIS SITE ON LAND PURCHASED FROM C.P. AND ANNA VOGELSANG. MRS. CHARLES SIEBEL SOLD THE CHURCH LAND FOR A PARSONAGE.

THE CONGREGATION LATER JOINED THE OLD TEXAS SYNOD AND THEN THE IOWA SYNOD, FROM WHICH IT CALLED THE REV. JULIUS BOSSHARD IN 1908. BOSSHARD REMAINED UNTIL 1920, THEN RETURNED IN 1930 TO SERVE UNTIL HIS DEATH IN 1947. OTHER ST. PAUL PASTORS DURING THE FIRST HALF OF THE 20TH CENTURY INCLUDED THE REVS. M.C. HOERMANN AND E.J. SCHEFFEL. DURING THAT TIME, THE CONGREGATION FORMED THE LUTHER LEAGUE AND A CHURCH CHOIR. IN THE 1950s, CHURCH MEMBERS ORGANIZED A BROTHERHOOD AND WOMEN'S MISSIONARY SOCIETY.

A GERMAN-SPEAKING CONGREGATION FOR MUCH OF ITS FIRST FIFTY YEARS, ST. PAUL ALSO FOLLOWED ENDORSED LUTHERAN PRACTICES, WHICH INCLUDED SEATING THE MEN ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE SANCTUARY AND WOMEN ON THE RIGHT. WOMEN WERE ALSO NOT PERMITTED TO VOTE IN CONGREGATIONAL DECISIONS. THESE PRACTICES WERE REVISED IN THE 1940s. AS THE CONGREGATION GREW, IT JOINED THE TEXAS DISTRICT AND LATER THE EVANGELICAL LLJTHERAN CHURCH IN AMERICA, ALSO ADDING FACILITIES TO ITS PROPERTY. OVER A CENTURY AFTER ITS FOUNDING, ST, PAUL LUTHERAN CHURCH CONTINUES TO SERVE ITS COMMUNITY.
