Established in the 1800s, St. Paul AME Church of West Newton, Pa., flourished throughout the 19th and 20th centuries, strengthening, guiding and resting its parishioners.
There has been a long line of respected leaders at St. Paul West Newton. With the passing of our most recent leader, Rev. Constance Corbin, St. Paul AME of West Newton must close its doors for now, leaving open God’s window.
In a heartfelt tribute to St. Paul and in honor of Rev. Corbin’s legacy and commitment to education, scholarships will be awarded with the church’s remaining funds. The church takes comfort in knowing that the spirit of generosity and leadership, the strength and culture of faith at St. Paul AME of West Newton lives on through these scholarships. The scholarships have been awarded to Kaya Carpenter (Robert Morris), Destani Bynum (Indiana University of Pa.), and Laeonta Davis (Carlow University).
