St Paul Lutheran (WELS) Celebrates 50 Years Serving the Clintonville Community

The year was 1967, Green Bay defeated Kansas City in the very first Super Bowl, gas cost 33 cents per gallon, and the Beatles were at the top of the pop music charts. Also happening in 1967 (though slightly less known) a small group of Christians put up the collateral to build a church named St Paul Lutheran on North Park St. in Clintonville, Wisconsin. Back then the congregation was part of the Evangelical Lutheran Synod and was under the leadership of Pastor William W. Werling. As we all know, a lot can change in 50 years. St. Paul has seen several changes in leadership, a change in Synod, and has endured tragedy. Not to unlike our country and the world. Through it all two things remain unchanged: God’s love for us and our need for Him. By God’s grace, St. Paul’s simple message of salvation through Faith alone by Grace alone through Christ alone has remained steadfast. Curious about St. Paul? Come join us Sunday June 18th as we celebrate fifty years serving the Clintonville community, everyone is invited! Our regular worship service is at 9am and then a special celebration will begin at 4pm with a festival service followed by a catered meal. We would also like to extend a special invite to you, our neighbors and friends. Exciting things are happening at St Paul Lutheran, we look forward to meeting you and to the next 50 years in Christ alone.
