CHILDREN'S MINISTRIES
Love each other as I have loved you (John 13:34)
Our children are our greatest gifts. It is a joy to see them learn and grow in faith and friendship. Nurturing each child’s unique talents and tending to their needs through our dedicated ministries is where our faith meets our community or we simply say, you are all welcome here! There are many ways we care for one another; take a look below and we hope to see you soon.
Of all the places you could go, thank you for considering Saint Paul’s a place for your family.

Our newly renovated building spaces dedicated to children have something for every age. Our program includes: directed play activities, weekly music and movement class, crafts, story and chapel time, yoga, gardening and plenty of outdoor playground time.
Our hours have recently expanded and we offer flexible scheduling for those that just need a few mornings a week and also those that need full days.
