Children

Children at St Paul

Known, loved, and growing in faith.

From nursery care through sixth grade, children are welcomed into the life of St Paul through worship, learning, friendship, and joyful experiences that help faith take root.

Children gathered for Vacation Bible School at St Paul Church

Faith grows through belonging.

Our goal is not simply to keep children busy. We want each child to know that they are loved by God, known by their church family, and invited to follow Jesus.

Children on Sunday

Children are welcome in worship. Nursery care, Children’s Church, and Sunday School offer age-appropriate ways for children to participate, learn, and grow in faith.

For our youngest children

Nursery care

Nursery care is available for families who would like it. Children are also always welcome to remain with their families in worship.
