SERVICES

and a Sunday morning service at 9:00 a.m. Sunday School and Adult
Scripture Study follows the Sunday service. Holy Communion is
offered on the first, third and fifth Saturdays and Sundays of
the month to all communicant members of LCMS congregations. We
practice the Scriptural and Confessional practice of closed communion,
so that those who attend the Holy Supper know "what they
seek, and why they come." St. Paul's offers Advent and Lenten
Wednesday Vespers services.

WELCOME
The hymn writer summarized every age quite well when he wrote:
"Change and decay in all around I see.
Oh, thou who changest not, abide with me."
St. Paul's Lutheran church is a congregation facing the shifting
sands of our sinful flesh, the world, and the devil's power
with the solid rock of Jesus Christ crucified and risen, revealed
and given in the preaching of His Word, the forgiveness
of our sins, and the reception of His body and blood in the Lord's Supper.
In an ever changing culture it is indeed priceless and precious to enter
the doors of St. Paul's on any given Sunday to participate in the
timeless and treasured liturgy and hymns, and be graced with the
changeless Christ. Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever.
Come worship with us at our Divine services.
Come and hear, receive and believe that Jesus is the Christ,
your Savior, the Son of the living God!
