A Brief History of St. Paul's
St. Paul's Church was erected in 1825 as
a successor to the old St. Martin's Church,
Showell, MD. which had been the center of
Anglican worship in northern Worcester
County since the early 1700's.
In 1904, during a northeaster, the town of
Berlin was ravaged by fire. St. Paul's was
severly damaged with only the 18" thick
walls remaining. Under the direction of The
Rev'd William England, the church was
rebuilt at a cost of $10,028.02 with a
dramatically different look.
Under the influence of the Oxford Movement,
the church took on the appearance it has today.
The internal configuration of the church is
reminiscent of a Medieval Cathedral with
clerestory windows and exposed timber ceiling
supports.
The parish remains faithful to the traditional
form of doctrine, discipline and worship of the
Episcopal Church as embodied in the Book
of Common Prayer.
