Dr. Thomas Kirby, second pastor of St. Paul, with altar delivered for churchA new link called Photo History has been added to the Saint Paul TODAY blog. If you click on the link at left it will take you to a photo album of historic photos of St. Paul.
There are only a couple of dozen photos in the album so far but you can watch it expand--especially if you have any old photos you would like to contribute. If you have an old photo, we can pick it up, scan it and return it to you. Your name will be listed as the donor if you choose.
If you would like to help preserve the history of the parish by providing a photo, please contact Harry Liggett by email at hliggett@sbcglobal. net or phone 330-724-5808
The old photo here which is from the parish archives shows Dr. Thomas Kirby, the second pastor of St. Paul, standing next to the altar delivered for the original church. Fr. Kirby served from December 16, 1920 to September 18, 1924. Lettering on the truck is "Fisher Bros. Lumber."
The photo album and displays in the narthex arranged each week by Bob Capanna from the parish archives are intended to create interest in the 90th anniversary celebration of the parish in October and also an attempt to preserve some of the precious history of the parish.
