Who we are
St. Paul's Episcopal Church in Angelica is a small church. We view that, in the light of Dr. Johns' statement above, a strength and a gift to celebrate. It means our relationships as a community of faith can be strong and vital as we bear one another's burdens and celebrate each other's joys.
We are a Church which prays together and is able to come togther around our Lord's holy Table despite the many differences that are present in even a small community of people. The strength of the Episcopal Church, and of St.Paul's Church, is that there is room for all sorts of conditions of people.
The flip side to our being a small Church is that it's not easy to get lost among throngs of people and dozens of myriad programs. At the same time, that also means there is room for personal growth and expression with others who are traveling the same journey as you are.
We are a Church where conversation is frequent and valued; but we also value and allow those seeking quiet and meditation to find that.

St. Paul's Episcopal Church History
The Episcopal Church in Angelica dates to 1820 when services were held using the Court House. The parish was formally organized in 1827 with Philip Church and James Wilson, Wardens. A building for the congregation was begun n 1831, completed and consecrated in 1834, and then was destroyed by fire in 1847. A new church structure, the current church, was begun in 1847 and consecrated in 1848. A new pipe organ was installed in the 1880's for $1300, the large wooden rood screen and windows were later added as memorials to various members and former clergy. One of the windows given in memory of Thomas C. Thornton was crafted by the Tiffany Studios in the 1890's. The Church continued to grow through the latter part of the 19th and first half of the 20th centuries.
Starting in the 1920's Christ Church has begun a century of clustering and yoking with other Episcopal parishes in Allegany County. In 1975 St. Paul's Church joined with the parishes in Belmont, Bolivar, and Cuba in forming a regional ministry called the Allegany Counnty Ministry, sharing their clergy. During this time there was a priest resident in the Rectory of St. Philip's Church, Belmont and in the Rectory of Christ Church, Cuba. During the 1980's the four parishes of the Allegany County Ministry were joined by St. Andrew's Church in Friendshiip and St. John's Church in Wellsville. The six Episcopal parishes were then served by one stipendiary priest and several resident non-stipendiary priests. Through this time the six Episcopal Churches of Allegany County continued to decrease in size with evetually St. Andrew's Church, Friendship, Church of our Savior, Bolivar, and St. Philip's Church, Belmont all closing within the past two years.
In October, 2014 the Allegany County Episcopal Ministry was dissolved as a regional cluster of parishes united within the Episcopal Diocese of Rochester. It was decided the ACEM no longer well served the needs of the individual congregations and, consquently, each parish would continue to explore its own life indendently and as will make most sense in each of the three remaining communities having an Episcopal Church: Angelica, Cuba, and Wellsville.
As a result, St. Paul's Church is now revitalized in our faith to remain a vital outreach for the Episcopal Church in the Angelica-Belmont-Belfast area. We have secured the priestly ministry of an Episcopal priest who recently retired and moved back to Allegany County, The Rev. Richard Hamlin. Fr. Rick is not a newcomer to us as he was one of two priests who founded the Allegany County Ministry in 1975. Fr. Hamllin and his wife, Stephanie, were married at St. Paul's in Angelica in 1976 and the women of the Church provided them a reception on the Church's side lawn. Two of their children were baptized in Christ Church, Cuba and Fr. Hamlin was ordained to the priesthood in Christ Church in 1976.
