Description: The Administration Building, Wartburg Orphan's Farm Scholl, Mt. Vernon, N.Y.

William Alfred Passavant, D.D., was born October 9, 1821, in Zelienople, Pennsylvania. As a pastor, editor, missionary, educator, church strategist and founder of hospitals, orphanages, and homes for the aging, Passavant became a key figure in 19th century American Lutheranism.

In 1865, Passavant set out to realize his vision of a community of mercy to serve New York area children who had been orphaned by the Civil War and the many terrible epidemics of the time. His efforts led to the establishment of “The Wartburg Orphans Farm School.” Not mailed or used.

We mail all of our cards in a plastic sleeve and cardboard on each side for durability. We do combine multiple items into a single shipment to save on shipping costs
