At St.
Paul's our mission is to fulfill Matthew 19:14 "Let the little
children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the Kingdom of Heaven
belongs to such as these.”
All children are precious to God, and our goal is to draw them
closer to Him with programs from birth through 6th grade on Sundays,
and also throughout the week.

your calendar for a great adventure the 3rd week in July (16th

invited to participate, and older kids are always welcome as helpers.
See the church transformed...in the past it has been a HolyWord Studio,
Polar Expedition, Bug Safari, and S.C.U.B.A.! We sing, make crafts,
play outdoor games, go on a Bible story adventure, watch a Bible theme
video, participate in a mission outreach, enjoy yummy snacks, all while
learning a Bible theme each day! Each child takes home special crafts,
but most of all, he leaves knowing Jesus loves them!

Our
Children's Sunday school is a wonderful place for children to learn
about God and His love for us. Children are divided into classrooms according to
ages/grade. Then we go to classes based on age or grade in school. Children between the ages of 2
years and 6th grade are welcome to join us During worship services for
this time of praising God and learning about His plan for our lives.
