8:30 AM Holy Communion ... accompanied
by jazz musicians.
10:45 AM Holy Communion ... a
rich blend of traditional and contemporary liturgy and music.
Festival and special occasion worship
St. Paul Church offers special worship services on Christmas Eve,
Ash Wednesday, Lenten Wednesdays, Maundy Thursday, Good Friday and
other holy days that occur through the year. Special services of
healing are held twice yearly, during Lent and near St. Luke's Day
in the fall. Consult the church calendar for further information
about these opportunities to worship.
Nursery for small children
While we encourage children to worship with their families, a nursery
is available for children under the age of 5 during both Sunday
morning worship services.
Sunday morning coffee and conversation
Worshipers are always invited to greet one another, have a cup of
coffee and join the conversation following each of the two worship
services.
The St. Paul Senior Choir and Instrumental
Music
The St. Paul Choir enriches the 10:45 liturgy from September through
early June. This talented group always welcomes new folks to join
them in giving voice to the congregation’s praise of God.
Rehearsals are on Wednesday evenings at 5 p.m. and Sundays at 9:45
a.m. People who play instruments -- woodwinds, strings, percussion
-- are invited regularly to participate in worship.
Contemplative Prayer Worship
Quiet song, prayer, silence, and meditative listening to God's Word
mark this weeknight service held on the second Thursday each month
at 7:00 pm and weekly during the Advent and Lenten seasons. The
liturgy offers an oasis for people to rest and find Godly peace
in the midst of a noisy, busy world. Portions of the liturgy for
the contemplative prayer worship service come from communities of
faith where the practice of contemplative prayer has a rich tradition,
especially the Taize community in France and the Iona community
in Scotland. For schedule times consult the church calendar.
