CONGREGATIONAL LIFE
Building, supporting and enabling community is central to our faith life. At St. Paul's we've emphasized "turning the church inside out" for the sake of the community as a way to enhance our community life and the broader community. Contact us to sign up for our weekly email Newsletter!
hospitality
A dedicated Hospitality Team volunteers to staff our kitchen for meal and reception preparation, service and cleanup. This provides community at the table for all to enjoy.
Hospitality includes meals and funeral receptions.
stewardship
The Stewardship team continues to strive to inspire our faith community to pro-actively and generously give of our time, talents and treasure as part of our commitment to St. Paul's. A Volunteer of the Month program highlights the contributions of time and talent of individuals and groups. A series of in-home coffee parties in the fall give us the opportunity to meet and get to know each other and celebrate all that we love about St. Paul's.
pastoral care
The Pastoral Care team connects with parishioners on a regular basis about church events. They visit and conduct services at seniors' residences, monitor the Prayer Chain, talk on the phone and personally visit shut-ins, and visit patients in the hospital. Each year in December they lead a Candlelight Service of Love and Remembrance for those who are grieving the death of a loved one.
special productions
At least once a year, St. Paul's puts on a special production such as a musical play or drama. Contact us to find out how to get involved!
property
The Property team looks after the nuts and bolts of our large building. From the roof to the basement, from stem to stern, they keep us warm and dry, clean and safe. Are you handy with tools or a mop?
cleaning bees
Once a month a group of about ten dedicated volunteers gather to give St. Paul's some extra polish, supporting the ongoing work of our custodian Stan Lippert. They "sweep" into action at 9:00 a.m. on the first Thursday of every month, and always welcome new recruits!
