Youth Sunday School & Weekday Times
The time between 7th and 12th grade can be tough. It is even tougher when you don’t have support. Our goal is to equip our youth to transform the world. We encourage questions, and help students to find answers about faith and God and how those have real world applications in their lives at school, home and with friends. We have Bible studies, play games, and perform mission work. We’d love for you to come and hang with us as we share life together. Come and be a part of our growing student ministry.
Children's Ministries
St. Paul Church has a very active and creative Children’s Program. We have Sunday School, children’s church and a Wednesday program for pre-school that is for two through four year olds. We also have a Wednesday program that is for Kindergarten children through 6th graders. They will have opportunities to learn about God’s love through a rotation style Sunday School, Wednesday After School Program, Liturgical Dance Team and Acolyte Program. Wednesday programs begin in September.
