  • Upcoming St. Paul's Events

    Sunday, May 10 | 10:30 AM | St. Paul's Chapel
    Worship Service

    Join us this Sunday as Pastor Ryan continues our new sermon series through the book of Hebrews. Last week we began exploring this rich and powerful book, and we are excited to keep digging deeper together. Whether you have been with us for years or are looking for a place to reconnect, all are welcome to join us for worship, Scripture, and community.

    As we gather this Mother’s Day, we recognize that the day carries both joy and difficulty for many, and we pray our time together would be encouraging to all.


    UConn Exam Study Bags

    A big thank you to everyone who helped with our UConn study bags last week. Because of your generosity and encouragement, we were able to fill 300 bags for students heading into finals, each one packed with care, prayer, and reminders of God’s love.

    Special thanks to Gary and Carson for their help handing the bags out on campus. Your time and presence made a real impact during a busy and stressful week for students.

    We are grateful for our church family and the way you continue to serve so faithfully in simple but meaningful ways.


    Kids Church

    We are excited to be in the middle of our Learn. Grow. Go. curriculum from Voice of the Martyrs. Over the coming months, children ages 6–12 will explore biblical stories from the life of Christ and the Book of Acts, grow in their faith, and be encouraged to share the good news of Jesus with others.

    Youth Bible Study

    We have been so encouraged to see how much our students are growing through Youth Bible Study. Students in grades 7-12, come hang out, dig into Scripture, and have some honest conversations. It is a low-key, welcoming space where you can ask real questions, grow in your faith, and build friendships that last. Bring your Bible, bring a friend, and just show up.


    Sunday, May 31 | 6:00 PM | South Woodstock Baptist Church
    Multi-Church Regional Prayer Gathering

    Believers from across the region are invited to gather for a multi-church evening of worship and prayer.

    All are welcome to attend.
