History of St. Paul Lutheran Church
The origins of St. Paul Lutheran Church date back to the start of the 20th century. Three separate Lutheran congregations in the Garrison area, Zion, Immanuel, and St. Paul, were organized during this period of immigration into North Dakota. In 1913, St. Paul Lutheran Church was organized in Garrison and by 1948 the three churches had formed one congregation. The congregation moved to a new church building in northeast Garrison in 1985. In our 95 year history, 13 pastors have been called to our congregation. Our current pastor, Dick Hendrickson, has been at St. Paul for 25 years.
