READ THE STORY OF PARADISE CHURCH:

Our Church's History

Our church's history begins in the year 1849. A meeting was held between the Lutherans and the Reformed to erect a meeting house. Alith Bieber was the chairman of the meeting. He was a Lutheran.

They named a slate of officials for the church consisting of two elders from the Lutheran Church, Jacob Wansettler & John Bieber, two elders from the Reformed Church, Jacob Lynn & Adam Sinning, two deacons from the Lutheran Church, Elith Bieber & John Hawn, and two deacons from the Reformed Church, John Messerly & Louis Thoman.

George Messerly, from the Reformed Church, and Jacob Beard, from the Lutheran Church, made up the building committee. Three trustees, John Vonogle, Louis Thoman, and Abraham Miller, were appointed to see after the land for the burying ground and to erect a meeting house.
