Small Groups at St. Paul’s

​

Small group meetings at St. Paul’s are a  wonderful way to participate in unique and specialized spiritual or fellowship experiences in an intimate setting. They also allow us to meet others and grow in relationships.  Small groups may be held in an ongoing or temporary basis.  Women’s and men’s fellowships, service committees and other groups have been frequently held at St. Paul’s. Groups are often begun as folk’s have an interest in them.
