This poster is entirely in German. It commemorates the 50th wedding anniversary of Gustav Dimlich and Minna Bittner.
At the top edge there is a floral border with a '50' in the center and in the printed image of a ribbon within the flowers, in handwritten writing, it says (in small sections):
"1891 4. Juni Gustav Dimlich Mit Gott In Christo Minna Bittner 4. Juni 1941"

At the center, making up the central focal point is a wreath made of gold color paper flowers, with many overlaying layers. There is a ribbon tied in a bow at the bottom of the wreath. Within the wreath is a printed Bible quotation and then it says "Gedenkblatt zur goldenen hochzeit" which means (roughly) "commemoration on the golden wedding" and then has a poem below.

At the bottom floral border, there is more handwritten text which is difficult to read, however the center states "Deutsche Methodisten Kirche" with "Lawrence, Mass." written below.

The bottom right corner, in typed text, says "Ernst Kaufmann, Inc. New York, 7-11 Spruce Street"

(UPDATE - Item removed from frame on November 22, 2022 - The frame has dents and wear, missing and chipping paint.) The print itself has a light water stain at the bottom right.
