Ministries - Worship
The Worship Ministry at St. Paul's UCC works closely with the pastor to plan and implement meaningful worship experiences throughout the church year.
The Blessing of Gathering
As you enter our sanctuary, use the pre-service time to prepare your heart and mind through quiet time and prayer.
​
We welcome your online prayer requests. If you are attending worship in person, find a prayer request card in the pew rack to fill out and hand to an usher before the service, who will see that the pastor receives it.
