Biographical / Historical

St. Paul's Reformed Church built its first church in 1825. About 1835 a French-speaking Swiss congregation began worshiping in a nearby schoolhouse. Since the Lutheran congregation was declining they invited the French congregation to share the church with them. New churches were built in 1843 and again in 1888. St. Paul's UCC, Mt. Eaton, withdrew from the UCC in 2003.
