Children’s Ministry
The mission of St. Paul’s Children’s Ministry is to form lifelong disciples by exploring God's love in a supportive and inclusive community.
We want our children to know from day one that they are loved by God and our community. We also believe that children have a natural sense of spirituality and love of God. To that end, we offer programming each week that immerses our children in the stories and traditions of our faith.
We gather regularly on Sunday mornings and Wednesday evenings and host special children's ministry events throughout the year.
