Jellied Shrimp Salad

Today in First World Problems: trying to find out the history of churches that no longer exist. Today is the St. Paul’s Evangelical and Reformed Church of Buffalo, NY. There was one St. Paul’s Evangelical that split off from St. Mark’s Evangelical in the late 19th century over a dispute about music. They apparently later made up and stayed together until 2013 (under the auspices of the United Church of Christ). I’ve also found references to another St. Paul’s Evangelical that was in a different location than the first. To add to the confusion, they may have both been German Evangelical churches.
