    To prepare for future parking and new driveways, pre-paving work begins in February — an important step bringing us closer to the completion of our construction project and ensuring that the west entrance driveway and west drop-off lane are ready for Easter.

    • The church's Ballas entrance driveway, west covered drop-off lane, and its six parking spaces will be closed for 4–6 weeks
    • Please use our east covered entrance for drop-offs
    • To walk from the school parking lot to church, please walk along the new east-side sidewalk instead of the Ballas Road sidewalk.

    Daily | Parking is available in our north parking lot (adjacent to our school) and east-entrance parking lot (adjacent to the park), which includes handicapped spaces. Read more below about parking at neighboring businesses. 

  • ASH WEDNESDAY: FEB. 18

    Ash Wednesday: February 18 | Lent begins

    11:00 a.m. and 6:15 p.m. 

    Coins  With Holy Communion

    Cross  Imposition of ashes 15 minutes prior to start of service and after service

    Utensils   Jambalaya dinner (take-out) served after evening service in Ballas lobby


    We warmly welcome you to join us in worship this Lenten season, beginning on Ash Wednesday. This day marks the start of our penitential journey toward the cross of Calvary and the joy of Easter, as we remember our mortality and our need for Christ’s forgiveness. The imposition of ashes begins 15 minutes prior to the start of services, and also after services.


    Each Wednesday in Lent, St. Paul's offers services with Communion at 11:00 a.m. and 6:15 p.m. “Singing With the Exiles” is the sermon theme for our midweek Lenten worship, drawn from Isaiah 40–55 and focused on some of the best‑known, most cherished, and theologically significant texts in Scripture.

Parking Impacts

With the construction of our new ministry facilities, we are adapting to significant parking changes due to construction zones, trucks, and building materials on campus. 

  • Parking limitations are temporary; when construction is complete, full parking capacity will be restored. 
  • Carpooling is encouraged.
  • For worshipers with mobility challenges, we hope to prioritize use of the 106 remaining campus parking spaces
  • Passenger drop-off is available at both our west and east lobby entrances.
  • Extra parking is available at Edward Jones, the Village Bar, and at the north-end Schnuck plaza lot (read more above).
