What is St. Paul's?
St. Paul's is a loving community of committed Christians. We care about each other and we want to care about YOU. We are diverse in our backgrounds and individual beliefs and yet we walk together by making our experience of Jesus Christ more real within the common bond of our Episcopal family.
St. Paul's would like to welcome you to a special Christian community where you will be encouraged to develop your own personal journey to:
Grow in your own special faith.
Assist families in their moral and spritual growth.
Support each other through life's crisis.
Develop meaningful opportunities for outreach to others.
COME WORSHIP WITH US!

Who are Episcopalians and what do they believe?

SCRIPTURE:
Episcopalians are people of faith. We believe the Holy Scriptures contain all that is necessary for our salvation, that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, that the Holy Spirit is God's love working through us as the church.
TRADITION:
We preserve our faith through a tradition which goes back to England in 400 AD. Tradition is reflected in our church government, our worship, our determinations as a church and diocese.
REASON:
Episcopalians can be enthusiastic about their belief and joyful in their worship. We believe that God gives us reason and intellect, and through application of reason, our path in belief may become clear.

BIBLE STUDY
John Tarver leads, sanctioned by the Bishop's Committee, Bible Study, to be held before church at 9:00 a.m. They are working on the Gosepl of John, join any time.

DIOCESAN PUBLICATION! "The Spirit" can be accessed through our "links" on this page. Thanks for your interest.

Newsletter: January 2012
While the festivities of Christmas are over, remember that the Christmas season lasts for twelve days. I was sorry that I missed the Christmas Eve Service at St. Paul’s which is always a wonderful event. However, Kate and I were at the DeKoven Center in Wisconsin and had the bonus of hearing Kristen sing solos at two different services.

2011 has gone fast. While we have missed Rolf, I think that the whole congregation has responded in a marvelous manner. Thanks to everyone for all that you do in keeping God’s Spirit alive and well at St. Paul’s

2012 will present new challenges and decisions to be made. At the last Bishop’s Committee, it was decided that the Annual Meeting will be held on January 29th following the service. We will be sending information on the meeting including an update on Regional Ministry. Keep the decisions that will need to be made in your prayers.

Finally, please return your 2012 pledge so that the Bishop’s Committee can present a realistic budget.

Simply, Sam
