Welcome to Saint Paul's United Methodist Church
Thanks for visiting us on the web!
Foundations of our Worship
A 3-week Special Learning Opportunity on Sundays-- for all ages, children & adults!
Our 3rd and final week this coming Sunday, February 5, we will explore the worship space of our Sanctuary. What do the symbols mean that we find at the front of the church, in the windows, on the kneelers? We will have a virtual tour of our sanctuary using an online interactive program that was created by one of our church members. Caitie Finlayson, who just recently joined the church with her husband, Ian, is getting her PhD at Florida State. She wrote her dissertation looking at how worship space influences the actual worship experience and Saint Paul's was one of the congregations she used for her data. This will be a fun morning of interactive study before we adjourn to the Sanctuary before the 11:00 am service to get a closer look at some of these symbols.
Parents, this is your opportunity to attend class WITH your children and for you to learn together! Have you ever been asked WHY, and not known the answer? We'll equip you with all of the answers, and enable you to experience worship in a fresh way. We will NOT have children's Sunday School classes during these dates as the teachers will be attending this class with their own families and looking for you to be with them.
Financial Peace University
With much enthusiasm, we are once again offering Dave Ramsey's Financial Peace University. Jeff Askins will be facilitating the 13 week class. If you feel like you need a better handle on where your money is going or want to discover some helpful ways to get out of debt and save your future, then this class is for you. The preview class will be Wednesday, January 25th at 6:15 pm. Regular classes begin February 1st at 6:15 pm. Sign-up here.
