At St. Paul’s we offer many opportunities to deepen our relationships with one another through both parish-wide fellowship events and activities as well as through smaller group fellowship. We believe building genuine friendships is one of the key factors in growing spiritually and in increasing our sense of connectedness as a parish family.
Fellowship Events
Some of our annual fellowship events include the Fall Parish Picnic, Commitment Sunday, the Ice Cream Social and the Senior Saints lunch. In addition, our Parish Fellowship Committee organizes other fun events like the Wine Tour, Mardi Gras party, and summer Games on the Lawn.
Fellowship groups
Members are encouraged to participate in one of the many fellowship groups at St. Paul’s. These include:
Women’s Council – Women from the congregation gather for monthly dinner meetings combing both fellowship and service projects. Their projects include Holiday Gift Bags for St Luke’s and the Ice Cream Social. Children are welcome.
Men’s Council – Open to all men of the congregation, the Men’s Council meets monthly and combines fellowship and outreach. Their projects include the Pancake Breakfast and Advent greens sales.
The Village – Fellowship for families with infants and younger children.
