St. Paul Blue Point Lutheran Church

St. Paul Blue Point Lutheran Church St. Paul (Blue Point) Lutheran Church is affiliated with the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod and adheres to a liturgical, traditional service.

Families from northeastern Germany settled on farmland northeast of what would be the city of Altamont in the 1860s. Paul Lutheran Church in the Blue Point area was organized in 1865 with a church, parsonage, and cemetery. A constitution was adopted for the church in 1869. That same year the church voted for a Christian day school. The current church was built in 1879. The church used the old chur

ch building as the school until a new school was built in 1910. In 1962, the one-room school was divided into two classrooms. In 1989 the four Altamont Missouri Synod congregations joined to form the Altamont Lutheran Interparish School for K through eighth grades. The school continues today: http://www.altamontlis.com/index1.asp

The church also assists other organizations, such as the International Lutheran Hour Ministries and providing resources for students entering full time church ministries. Sunday School - 8:30 am
Divine Service - 9:30 am
