Our Worship Services
St. Paul's offers two Sunday services and one service on Wednesday. Informal dress is usually the norm for Sunday services. Please come as you are! Children are always welcome! Even though St. Paul's is a relatively small congregation locating a building may be confusing. Just ask anyone and they'll be happy to point you in the right direction.
