Worship Services

St. Paul's Lutheran Church is a place where people can meet Jesus,  engage in life-giving community, and everyone is welcome. We believe in creating a space where people can have authentic encounters with Christ, discover their gifts and use them for God's glory. Join us for Worship, Bible Study and Fellowship Activities.

Traditional Worship The order or outline of the worship service comes from a hymnal or book in which various liturgical orders are found.  The church organ provides musical accompaniment to hymns which are also in the hymnal and occasionally special music might be provided by a choir or soloist.   Worship is led by the pastor and the sermon with assistance from lay readers, acolytes, organist and ushers.

Contemporary Worship The worship service may be outlined in the worship folder or projected on a screen.  Songs led by the Praise Team which includes a keyboard, guitars and drums are also projected for viewing by the congregation.  Sermons are usually the same in all services on a given weekend.

Advent & Lent Worship Advent is a time of preparation for the birth of the Savior and services focus on preparation and expectation.  Lent follows Ash Wednesday and extends to Holy Week.  Lenten worship reminds of the need for a Savior from sin, preparing for Good Friday and Easter.

Members of St. Paul's bring their tithes and offerings to worship and visitors are not expected to participate   Worshipers may sit wherever they wish.  There is wheelchair access to the sanctuary by way of a ramp on the south side of the church.  Restrooms are in the basement.  Announcements usually are printed in the worship folder.  Some may be given verbally prior to the beginning of the service.
