Sunday School
  • Last week we began using the "Laugh & Grow Bible for Kids", which goes through the Bible chronologically and does a wonderful job of telling the stories of the Bible in an engaging, age appropriate, yet theologically rich way. Last week we learned about the story of creation and started a craft where the kids got to create their own paper mâché earth. 
  • We will review the story of creation again this week and hopefully finish our paper mâché earths.  


Youth Group
  • With the Bishop visiting on 1/26, and one of our youth group members being confirmed at that time, the focus of our lesson for this week (1/19) will be to learn about confirmation.
  • We will start a new series on 1/26.

At St. Paul's the mission for our family ministry is to equip youth for abundant life in Christ.

What we mean by that is we desire for our youth to experience a saving and life giving relationship with Jesus Christ, which they cultivate during their time at St. Paul's and carry with them for the rest of their lives.

We seek to accomplish this mission through the empowering our leaders, investing in our youth, and equipping our parents.

We empower our Sunday School volunteers and youth leaders to disciple the youth of our church.
We invest in your youth through our programs like Sunday school, youth group and more. Additionally, we invest in our youth through mentoring relationships.
We firmly believe that parents are the primary disciplers of their children. Therefore, we seek to equip parents to disciple their children by providing parents with training and resources for family disciplship.
