Serve at Church

St. Paul’s offers many opportunities to serve others because we believe that in serving others we are in fact serving Jesus. You may already have an idea where you would like to help, or you may not have the faintest idea where to start, so here are some of the opportunities currently available.

Here is a short list of service opportunities to consider at St. Paul’s, but don't limit yourself!  If you have seen a ministry where you'd like to serve here on this list or elsewhere, or have a new idea, contact Jenny Andison.
