Been wanting to read great classic literature? Enjoy modern literature? Love reading across a variety of genres? As they say, the more you love reading, the more reading you love. Our Christian Readers Group will read across various genres — classic literature, modern fiction, history, mystery, and more — exploring Christian themes and eliciting the ways in which the literature informs Christian faith and life. The book club is led by St. Paul’s member and Concordia Seminary professor, Rev.

The vision of our College Connection team is to encourage our college students in their Christian faith during these years of early independence, as well as to help connect them to a church near their campus.  Our team sends personal cards and gift card care packages to students several times a year, and — especially important — offers a prayer ministry to them as well.

PARENTS: We don't want your college student to miss out! Please help us keep our College Connection mailing lists up-to-date by sharing your student's contact information online or with the church office. 

Dinner groups are forming now! Register online here.  

"Dinner for Eight" groups at St. Paul’s are a great way to meet new friends or stay connected with longtime friends. Our dinner groups, based on common interests or seasons of life, gather together about once a month to enjoy good food and fellowship with each other.

Groups choose home or restaurant dinners. Each individual or family takes a turn to be the “host” home within the group. Dinner can be as fancy or casual as your group of eight prefers. If you have any questions, please contact Carrie Patterson.

JOY55+ is a group whose purpose is to promote positive attitudes toward aging, encourage positive aspects of moving into a new time of life, and appreciate the most of what we have if we are already older.  While there is no specific age criteria, the hope is to target those who may be thinking about retirement (though still possibly several years ahead of that decision) and also anyone already retired.
