St. Paul's Church

ABOUT US
St. Paul´s has been a pillar of the German community in New York since its founding in 1841.
Many of our church members come from Germany, but people from other backgrounds also feel at home with us.
Our community life and our services are mainly held in German.
This sets us apart from many other communities in New York.

Camp Thiemer
We inherited a farm with forest on the edge of the Catskills. We are currently thinking about how we can make this gift useful for the community.
