The Lindenmoyer Scholarship Fund

The Lindenmoyer Scholarship Fund was established to recognize the Lindenmoyer Family, long-time members of St. Paul’s UCC, Northampton and life-long advocates for education.

Woodrow “Woody” Lindenmoyer was employed by Bethlehem Steel Corp working in the Engineering plant for 27 years before retiring in 1983. He was a member and Elder Emeritus of St. Paul’s. He was a Consistory Elder (1962-1985), Consistory President (1984), and Deacon (1955-1988). He was Chairman of the 50 th and 75 th Anniversary Committees and a member and treasurer of the Renovation Committee to build the parsonage in 1969. In addition, he was Advisor to the Youth Fellowship of the church (1948-1951), Manager of the baseball team for four years, and a Pulpit Committee Member (1983)

He was a member of the Northampton Area School Board (1959-1983), Vo-Tech and Intermediate Unit 20 (1968). He served on the Board of Big Brother/Big Sister (1975-1982) and the Northampton Memorial Community Center. He also served on the Northampton Boro Recreation Commission for five years and was a manager of the Northampton Athletic Association Little League for two years.

Harriet Lindenmoyer was a homemaker and life-long member of St. Paul’s UCC. She taught Sunday School for over 24 years in the Junior Department. She was the first Girl Scout Leader at St. Paul’s.

Mr. and Mrs. Lindenmoyer were married for 55 years and had a son, James. James “Jimmy” Lindenmoyer was a graduate of Northampton Area High School. He was a sports writer for the Blue Mountain Gazette and the Northampton Press. In 2011, he was elected into the Northampton High School Athletic Hall of Fame as a contributor/historian. His lifelong love of Northampton Sports led Jim and his dad, Woody to compile a historical compendium of Northampton HS Athletic statistics, leading to his nickname, “Mr. Star.”

We give thanks for the Lindenmoyer family for the love and service they gave to St. Paul’s. Church throughout their lifetime and for their generous bequest that established and provides for this scholarship fund that supports their passion for education.
