All Are Welcome
Come and join us for worship at St. Paul�s. Come as you are! Come prepared to be surprised by God�s word and presence in the assembly of neighbors, visitors guests. ALL ARE WELCOME AT THE CHURCH OF ST. PAUL. Come with all that needs to be healed, to find nourishment and God�s grace. Come with the joyful expectation of receiving eucharist in the family of God�s people. As we gather each Sunday, we pray, �Come, Lord Jesus, Send us your Spirit, renew the face of the earth�.� As we gather together, we share in the work of the Spirit and experience the sacred. In the living words, songs, common prayer and sacrifice at the altar table, we are nourished as the body of Christ. With eager hearts, we come to worship in faith. Why? To give thanks, to break and share the bread, to bless and share the cup, to find mercy, say, �I am ready again, for your Spirit, O God.� Bring your open heart, your worries, frustrations, disappointments and eager expectation. Together, we receive and become the body of Christ, blessed and broken and poured out to a world in need of love. Come join us for worship at the Church of St. Paul. ALL ARE WELCOME!
