Biographical Sketch:     St. Paul’s Episcopal Church has been in Lubbock for many years. 

It has gone through a number of renovations and landscaping since

its construction.  The original church known as the St. Paul’s on

the Plains Episcopal Church was a small wooden building, which

was sold in 1939 by the Church.  The new building located

downtown is larger than the old church.
