Children Worship!
At St. Paul, children are welcome in worship! Both worship services include a children’s sermons, a “prayground” area for play, busy-bags to use in pews, and opportunities for kids to be worship leaders. We also prepare children and their families for the Sacraments of Baptism and Communion. Worship extends to our CELC school children too with weekly Chapel.
Children Grow!
At St. Paul, children grow in faith! We offer Christian education through our kids’ Sunday School classes, monthly Faith Step-Stones, and special Pop-up Programs connected to the church year. Our ministries are purposefully designed for faith to root and grow in kids at church, home, school and beyond. This includes our awesome summer-time ministries! Additionally, we support parent-based groups in gathering for study, fellowship and service.
Children Explore!
At St. Paul, children explore their gifts! We support and create opportunities for kids to serve through our outreach partners. Our Children/Family Committee provides vision and seasonal planning for service projects. We especially promote the great children/family ministry of our local Lutheran Camps as an outdoor church!

Sunday School
Preschool (3yrs) - 6th Grade.
St. Paul offers Sunday School at 9:30AM during the school year. The children explore faith through Bible stories, crafts, games, conversation and more. Classes are grouped by age/grade.
All teachers have clearances to care for children.
Babies & Toddlers
For the littlest ones, we tend to their spiritual care through new baby visits, faith-filled newsletters and opportunities for fellowship as families.
Explore our Splash Group that meets during Sunday school. Parents bring their little ones with them. The parents connect over faith conversations while the little ones play.
Faith Step-Stones
Each month we celebrate one age group as they take a new step in faith. Children prepare for these steps in Sunday school and at home. We celebrate them during our worship services. Faith Step-Stones

The Sunday school curriculum is based on resources from Sparkhouse.
We support the work of the Lutheran camping corporation and offer opportunities for kids to attend summer camp, as well as year-round camp adventures!
St. Paul strictly adheres to a child protection policy in order to provide a safe environment for children, youth, and their leaders.
We care for the spiritual growth of our CELC too. Providing worship, engaging families, and supporting staff are valuable to us as St. Paul church and school.
