Visitor Info
We are fast approaching Christmas and invite you to enjoy the warmth of God's love by worshiping with us in-person if you live in the area or are passing through. For those outside our locale, we do livestream our services into this page, as well as YouTube and Facebook.
At St. Paul's you may expect traditional worship of liturgy and Holy Communion each Sunday with a message grounded in the Scriptures and guided by the Lutheran Confessions — all in a friendly, multigenerational environment.
We welcome and encourage children to worship with us. Just before the sermon, our children take up a spare change offering for mission. Then they join one of our pastors on the chancel steps for a chat about today's Scripture. We think you will love this part of the service.
