St. Paul's Mission 

Go, Make, Baptize and Teach.
taken from Matthew 28:19

The Evangelical Lutheran Church in America resulted from a union of three North American Lutheran church bodies: The American Lutheran Church, the Association of Evangelical Lutheran Churches and the Lutheran Church in America. The three churches agreed to unite in 1982. The ELCA actually began operating on January 1, 1988.

  • St. Paul’s is one of the 110 congregations, missions, and ministries that make up the TX-LA Gulf Coast Synod. 
  • The TX-LA Gulf Coast Synod is one of the synods that make up the ELCA.
