St. Paul Community Lutheran Church is a multi-cultural church, serving the diverse community of Pontiac, Michigan.  Offering worship service, weekly Bible studies and Family Night dinners, as well as food and clothing assistance to those in need are just samples of how the church is growing.  St. Paul's hosts holiday dinners and summer Vacation Bible School programs. 

Originally established as a Mission Outreach Congregation in 1946, its primary focus was to bring more people to believe that Jesus is their Lord and Savior.  They did this through Worship and Bible enrichment studies.  They reached out to tell about Jesus through love and various programs in the local Pontiac community.  They built the present church building at Third and Joslyn in 1953.  The original building at 4th and Joslyn then became the Economy Center where used clothing was sold.   

The church closed for about 10 years and re-opened in 2007 as a Lutheran Mission Church through the efforts of the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod, Michigan District.  The Michigan District of the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod called a pastor, Dietrick A. Gladden as a missionary for the congregation.  He was ordained & installed as pastor in February 2013. 

We welcomed Reverend Jonathan Trinklein as our Intentional Interim Pastor in January of 2018. On January 5, 2020, we installed Rev. Christopher Jung to continue sharing God's Word with new and old friends. 

At present, we have a vacancy pastor, Rev. Gerald Corbett, Jr., SMP who joined us on January 7, 2024, and was installed on February 18, 2024.

 "Meeting the people where they are, with the Gospel that changes lives."  “Conocer a las personas donde están con el Evangelio que cambia vidas.”
